Hermie up from first molt
Hermie up from first molt
Big guy is up! What do I do next? I know I have to bathe him or her in fresh water. Do I understand that correctly? Is it safe to keep him or her in the big tank (250gal)? I don't have another tank set up at this time.

Give her plenty of calcium, honey and protein. I don't think you have to bathe her. But you can keep her in the main tank.BettaCrew wrote:Big guy is up! What do I do next?

You only have to dip when your reintroducing them into a new tank with other hermie’s in there. You probably could if you wanted to but they should be ok. Congrats on successful molt.

Re: Hermie up from first molt
As stated, leave her in the main tank and don't bathe her. I have had my two crabs for 8+ years, and have never done anything different before/ during/ after a molt.
