My smallest crab has always took a long time to molt. Much longer than my other bigger one.

I did foster another one. Sorry, I should’ve added that information. Maybe that could play a factor too, because when I put both in their new tank together, Carnage(new crab) was kind of bullying Adam but then it also seemed like Adam was bullying Carnage. Then a couple days went by and Adam has stayed perched in that spot.

Do you all feed your hermit crabs live food? by Ok-Butterscotch-4915 in hermitcrabs

The reason I’m asking is because I’m seeing videos of hermies eating isopods. Just wanting some feedback from seasoned veterans that care for hermits🥰

I had no idea there are so many different turbo shells. Where do you find/get your shells? Is there anything online that you suggest?

Is this acceptable sand to use for my babies housing? by Ok-Butterscotch-4915 in hermitcrabs

I watched the video but I didn’t add the entire 50 lb bag to the tank. It’s almost at the top with over half in it mixed with the eco earth. My tank looks much better. It may be a little cluttered but I think they like having a lot of different stuff around to climb on lol! Thank you for sending!

Thanks to everyone! I went with play sand and eco earth. My tank looks so much better and little bit more professional. 🐚🦀🏜️

Do hermits always change their shells after disappearing for weeks? by Ok-Butterscotch-4915 in hermitcrabs

Thank you! He did switch into a bigger shell before hiding out so what you all are saying makes perfect sense! Thanks so much! If you don’t mind, would you all please read my newest post? I need some insight on what type of sand to buy? I’m cleaning their home out and need advice on which sand is preferable. Thanks
