HCA: Hermit Crab Association

I think it's working. The trick is covering the lid, over the plexiglass, with reflectix. I don't know why I did not think of an idea that just came in my mind. So my lid does not have plexiglass, it is a mesh lid with Reflectix on it. You can see where it goes wrong because the air can leave out o...

I thought I finally got my heat/humidity settled. Then the cold weather hit. I have a 40gal tank. A large zilla heat mat on the back, which doesn't cover the whole back, and also a small zilla heat mat along the back. I had that one from when they were in a 10 gal. And the space between with tinfoi...

i got my moss and successfully got it in the tank with the shower caddy, but it doesn’t give out humidity. I used somewhat cold water, is that the prone problem?

Oh, this probably doesn't matter, but I have it more of a climb toy (don't worry, I have a LOT more) than a food source, but they probably would anyway.

So I had a molt where a crab went down to molt, then within a week, all of the crabs were down. I know she wouldn't be digging by now, for its been more than a month later, and I still hear a crab constantly digging. I fear that he could have found the molter's cave with all of the digging. I have a...

What did it taste like? :lol: If u want some ocean-y decor in your tank id suggest unbleached corals or sea urchin. They look neat and Crabs can eat them. they are a great calcium source :) LOL it tasted like what cuttlebone tasted like, but less fishy (yes, I tasted cuttlebone too to see if it was...

Do they edit it with their Uropods and Telson or something else?

I just figured out your Youtube channel, and I love the content!

I have the right Reflectix from your description. Now, I know that the UTH would be too small now, for it was back when I had my 10 gallon. The ZooMeds weren't even the ones working when it would go like 1 degree F above the norm. I have a sinking feeling that it was more of an air leak. Because the...

Ok. The mushy pile thing sounds gross LOL!

Lol thanks! I'm not smart

So, I got this starfish at a beach shop, and I licked it because I'm weird and nothing happened. Is it safe to put in the tank?

Renroc, I can't believe how successful you have been with these babies! Soon not be babies any more! I was reading the entire process as you were posting messages about their growth, just never signed up back then.

They look like actual crabs now!

They don't come out of their shell at night on normal cases.
