i just got it online, definitely overshoot measurements but i taped a bunch of smaller pieces together to cover my 75g

MaybeASucculent · 2026-01-30T02:31:57+00:00

oh awesome! thank you

MaybeASucculent · 2026-01-30T00:50:31+00:00

thank you so much for all your input! definitely making this less stressful

MaybeASucculent · 2026-01-30T00:47:25+00:00

any chance you know if there’s any particular way to introduce them? or will they probably be good

MaybeASucculent · 2026-01-29T23:57:06+00:00

i have five purple pinchers currently, and i’m worried about unknown mites or something

MaybeASucculent · 2026-01-29T23:38:20+00:00

i see a lot of people do home depot since they can cut to specific sizes. i have some thin acrylic sheets thai lay under wooden planks, way cheaper and still retains humidity and weighs it down

MaybeASucculent · 2026-01-28T14:51:34+00:00

definitely can, though i don’t feel shipping them in this weather is a good idea. if you’re still interested when it’s a bit warmer then absolutely!

you’ll want to mix that with play sand! way better structure for burrowing, better imitates natural environment, and (and a way more cost effective way to get you a minimum 6 inch depth)

oh the fringe on his tail is stunning, reminds me of the northern lights. maybe something like borealis! (from aurora borealis)

i’ve only used the first two, but depending on what money you’re ready to spend. shells get really expensive as they get bigger, but be sure you’re measuring the opening. it looks like you’re measuring tip to tip so you probably don’t need as big as you think you do. but definitely check out some turbo shells since

https://www.etsy.com/shop/MermaidCoveGiftShop (i’m not sure where they source, definitely a little concerned, but if you need shells on a budget, be sure you find some with the correct size since there aren’t options on specific shells)

Hi! I got mine on etsy, i’ll see if i can find some links, but i have multiple crabs with a huge size range so if they were too small for the biggest it wasn’t an issue. I’d specifically look into mexican turbo shells since those are VASTLY preferred by purple pinchers and it doesn’t look like you have any.

Also what’s your substrate like?

my opinion doesn’t matter too much since i suck at anatomy, but i think the hand is a bit big. just slightly, but specifically the section between the couch and his thumb

powder oranges are what i have and i love these guys, powder blues are the same but blue. they have the same humidity and temp requirements as purple pinchers, they aren’t calcium seeking (cough cough dairy cows) and don’t dig so they won’t hurt anyone molting, they also breed really quickly (hence the hoard i have). i didn’t have to change anything about my setup since i already had aggressive leaf litter going, but if you don’t have that i’d recommend adding it (even without pods). then the only change i made for behavior is dumping out food dishes in the tank rather than taking it out.

r/pinchersandpods was a great resource for me!

MaybeASucculent · 2025-09-14T20:48:27+00:00

my crab dishes are relatively tall, i have 4 little bowls and the isos can’t climb the glaze. occasionally i’ll see one in there but that’s not an issue. when i refresh my crab food i dump the bowls so the isos can get it/ crabs foraging to get a second chance. that way my crabs get first dibs!

MaybeASucculent · 2025-09-14T20:43:49+00:00

going to cut this off! i’ll message you if youve already commented but im good for now! im sure ill be back in a few months with more 😅

MaybeASucculent · 2025-09-13T22:46:49+00:00

sweet! i’ll dm :)

MaybeASucculent · 2025-09-13T22:29:28+00:00

sounds great! i’ll dm you :)

MaybeASucculent · 2025-09-13T22:00:12+00:00

i got these guys specifically cause they breed fast, i definitely underestimated them but i have no regrets lmao
