HCA: Hermit Crab Association

I haven't seen her move in months, and I keep an eye out for new tracks in the sand. When I pick her up by the shell she does not move, her legs stay in that position and her feelers don't move either

Yes! Here is another photo of how she is sitting. The zoomed in ones posted previously show the mites.

Thank you curly, ugh I am so sad. Here are some pictures of the mites: https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/pw/AIL4fc8hec5IjIMcnUFrnV9Ln9O7JHGkGbGQK3twF-upuperiwGFmgh5SJ5pbiHpA8OyEWvCwBk7xYpL3FELdvXKg1scKv1UlwfO7Hm3i1Pocei5IaZiJyOlTszq7q4H3_V0R-zH62L1N-lvBu-snutNsGiuBt_ZzsxT1CnTnnaAHoQ6CPnYoijgYJtG864e...

Hello, My hermit crab has mites on her, I am thinking they are the food mites but was curious what you all thought, as she has always had them on her food but I have never seen them on the crab before until now. Sadly, she hasn't been doing well (see my "Inactive Crab" thread in the Emergency forum)...

Thank you so much for your response, curly. Just to update, the situation is still the same, she hasn't moved from the spot but is definitely still alive. I have been keeping the tank moist and covered to keep the humidity closer to 80% like you said. So sad but still holding out hope that she pulls...
