HCA: Hermit Crab Association

I have glass lids on all of mine.

Isopods love cork bark and leaf litter too - you can pick that up at practically any pet store!!

She's back from vacation

You've got this! I know you are capable!! Start preparing now!! Don't wait until the last minute!! I see the eyes on her clutch!!!!

Yes Very normal. Shake before use

If you go on Amazon, you used to be able to purchase the hood and it came with the light. Then from there you purchase new bulbs every 6 months The light will still work, but the UVB won't be any good

Edit: Thank you

I just wanted to state not too move the tank. If your substrate is deep enough they can dig down to cool off. I don't let my tanks get above 86, but that is me.

I have UVB on all of my crabitats, I use Reptisun T5-HO bulbs on mine. I swear by increased activity, and happy healthy crabs. My crabs breed also. The reason I originally purchased UVB was to replicate their natural environment. Straws have to have it though

Thank you so much for sharing the pictures!! I love seeing all of these babies!! They are adorable!

Nice loot!! I just ordered a shirt Didn't you get a Crab Con bag too?

Cute!

Hello, and welcome to the HCA!

I personally recommend dipping them in the freshwater of the tank, but to each's own

I wouldn't trust it. Anything to do with that company wouldn't be good!

I'm sorry I know I've been bad about it!! I will do that! Thank you for the well wishes!

I agree with Curlysister. Please fill out the emergency template. One thing I noticed is what you are feeding. Hermit crabs need a variety in their diet - and they especially need calcium eg: cuttlebone )purchase at the petstore), eggshells, coral, oystershell, They really need protein also eg: bugs...

I honestly couldn't see anything, but then again, it's late - and my eyes are bugged out from looking at my zoeae. If they are white then they would be food mites. Is your crab alive?
