HCA: Hermit Crab Association

I remember from a few years back, we determined it was in fact illegal to have terrestrial hermies there. http://www.hawaiiag.org/hdoa/pi_pq_animal.htm

Wow, goooorgeous tat. How many crabs are in it? Last count was 14 I think...? Hello again :) I see that Wode explained the difference between FELV and FIV, and the importance of retesting. :) Has Spruce been tested for FIP? That is another one that sometimes gets overlooked. Regardless - I hope tha...

So spooktacular! Love these pictures!! Makes me wish I still had Godzilla and Pontoon. Those guys were the only ones that were ok with photo shoots in my clan.

The isopods won't bother him. They can't dig down very far, and they are more interested in little tidbits on the surface.

I once had a jumbo down for 6 months before he came up hairy and pointy. I was convinced he had died. Takes them a while sometimes.

Go little dude, go!

Very exciting you got this far! Good work!

Thanks guys!!

@Fanatic The plants are fake aquarium plants, stiff so they can climb them to get out. Pools are a little less than 2 gallons each. The leaves are primarily birch. Sometimes I add maple and oak. Mine love maple the best! Birch is also well received.

I've always wanted one as long as I remember. She's such a good dragon.

You know I have to comment on Spruce. We have so many cases ourselves right now of rare stuff the vets have never seen before it is crazy. Have they considered that she is not local to Alaska and may have an intestinal parasite or blood parasite that is not native? Feline Infectious Anemia is a fle...

@GotButterflies They tested for FLV back in April and it was negative, as was a few other tests for different things. Xrays showed she has a tiny liver, and they think it possibly has something to do with that. They also said the type of testing they did for FLV may give a false negative, and they w...

So I got a 120 gallon tank this summer, and thought I’d post some pics of my setup! It’s not fancy, but the crabs are MUCH happier in this than the 55 I had for so long. My only camera currently is my phone, so sorry in advance for the quality. Hard to tell, but in the tank, I’ve got 4 shower caddie...

My 120 when I first set it up

And two days ago

I've used it before. Worked for what I needed it for, and saw no issues with it. Held up great to crabby wear and tear.

To me it looks like they are wearing masks. So theatrical.

Those are so neat!!!

It's down! And I have no idea how to fix it. Trying to get in contact with my ex who helps me fix it whenever it goes wonky. Hopefully will be back up in a couple days.
