Zoo Med Laboratories Hermit Crab Combo Glow Bowl

Are these safe for hermit crabs? I thought they would be cool, but I wasn't sure if they would ingest the paint or something:

I’m pretty sure that the colorants are mixed into the plastic itself. I personally try to avoid those in case of the chemicals leaching

Also see this thread where they did leach: viewtopic.php?t=106652
