Questions about sub and bubbler

[kieagcarm]

First question is, do you guys push down your sub so it's more right, compact, or do you leave it loose?

Second is about this new bubbler I set up. It's supposed to help with my humidity, right? How often do I change I the water now that it's set up? And is it normal for crabs to submerge completely for a few minutes, then hang onto the air stone like it's a lover? Lol

1. I let it do it's own thing, eventually all the substrate will settle, but if I see any hole entrances I'll smooth it out a bit so they don't try to bury any food or Enoch's shells.
2. I change my water every week on Monday. And yes, the crabs can and will submerge and chill out with the air stones.

With a bubbler you can actually get a way with another day or so between water changes (depending on the dish size/evaporation rate). The oxygen and constant movement keeps the water more fresh. As for holding onto it, think of it like a crabby jacuzzi lol.

Same as above. The sub will settle on its own and u may notice when it settles u will lose a little bit of height - I think mine settled and decreased the depth of my sub by like 1/2 an inch almost! I also change our waters once a week. We have one crab that liked to put his face in the bubblers Nothing like a spa day!!!

I need to set up bubblers soon. Maybe later today I could take a wire cutter to my lid to cut tiny holes for the air tubes
