Just went to PetSmart

Post by Kermie16 » Thu Feb 16, 2017 12:49 pm

Just went to Petsmart to get more moss and EE for my 20g temp and my 10 ISO - getting ready to move and need to empty out my 55g tank. Ended up with that plus some!! I got a Timothy hay "carrot" that I can hang in the tank - hoping to find a Tarzan crab one night LOL! - a cocohut with ladder, and a MASSIVE cork round!! I don't need the cork round right now but it was the only one left and I put it back and took it like 20 times before I just said get it because I haven't seen one this big ever around here! Oh and I strategically avoided the crab tanks - I can't stand to look in there anymore. I'm excited to redo my 55g after our move!!

Omg your crabs will LOVE the cocohut with the ladder, that's the cocohut I've had in there since August when I got them. They go nuts over the thing! I did have to cut off the ladder eventually because the rope and wool started to decay from the moisture, so keep that in kind lol. Other than that one small thing, fantastic choice for a cocohut!

Ditto re the crabs loving that coconut! I use mine as a hanging moss pit and have avoided the ladder getting funky by draping it over a small resin bridge to keep it off the substrate. The boys love climbing up the ladder and all over the outside of the coconut and it has been absolutely the best moss pit I've ever made for them -- doesn't need very frequent misting either.

Just an idea for the cork round- on the end that will be on the sub cut an arch door so the crabs can use it as a hideout! I put moss in mine and they love it!
