Tiny sized crabs

Post by crabbyjo » Tue Aug 16, 2016 2:25 pm

Does anyone know if there is a thread here about care of tiny size crabs. I have searched & searched. Do I need to do things differently for the little ones? Can these little guys climb up to the shell shop & moss pit or should I have one on the lower level for them? Do I need to cut their foods into tiny sized pieces?, etc......

Please direct me to the section if there is one. Thanks so much.

Their care is no different from large crabs. You may make sure their food is in smaller bits, but that's about it.

Ok, that is good to know. Can they climb to the upper level? I was thinking about putting a bowl of teeny shells on the lower level. Also, will cut the food into smaller pieces.

Thank you!! :D
