Hey guys!
I made a post about this a few days ago, and you folks told me that my crab was probably destressing / molting.
However, now that I've put in some careful observation, I'm getting worried. Here are the facts:
-Been down for about 6-7 days
-I hear scratching on the glass every night
-He is active during nights only
-NO EVIDENCE of him surfacing during nights.
Please help!!
Here is a video of him crawling around, this is taken from the bottom of my tank under their water dish (hence the wetter spot) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3GkNwXl ... e=youtu.be

Re: Hermit crab stuck?
They will tunnel around for a long time while destressing or before they molt. It really does sound and look completely normal.
