Re: Hermit Crab Vivarium w/ live plants, 101 gallons
I think it turned out awesome. I love the plants you have in there! :) Calatheas are such a pain, and hate tap water. Be interesting to sed how they'll turn out in the tank. They so finicky! Thanks! I think there will be a long adjustment period to find out which plants work the best for me and the...

Hermit Crab Vivarium w/ live plants, 101 gallons
I was able to get the new vivarium set up earlier than anticipated. I love it and so do the crabs! The tank is a 36" x 36" x 18" Exo Terra terrarium. There's 11" of coco fiber substrate with UV bulbs in the hoods and a Reptifogger above. The plants on the substrate are planted in completely enclosed...

Last Look at the 101 gallon Exo Terra Terrarium
I'll soon be dismantling the setup and decor in my crabitat and replacing it with an entirely new vivarium concept. The current setup has served me and the crabs well for almost six years so I took some pictures and video before everything changes. YouTube video tour: https://youtu.be/86LZSSU-lRM ht...

Re: 101 Gallon Exo Terra Crabitat Build
Very cool! I like how they are deep but don't take up much room! I see you have the cork bark leading up to them. What is inside for them to grip? I like the look of this!
