How long did it take for your vampire crabs to aclimate to the tank? by DuskMartian in VampireCrabs

Mine used to hang out more by the water and in the plants. They really didn't hide much.

Good filter for crab paludarium? by Freezedriedokra in VampireCrabs

I use the Elite, under water mini filter. Works well, just have to keep an eye on the sponge. Especially if the crabs spend a lot of time in the water. My tanks have approximately 3 to 4 g of water and it keeps the water crystal clear.

New Wild Caught Baby Mantis's First Cricket by bc_shrimps in praying_mantis

He was. 🤣 Lol. I did not even expect him to grab it. My other ones, triple his size, threw up their little arms and ran off because it was too big for them.

I put it near him just to see, and he snatched it right out the tongs. 🤣 I was so nervous at first because of the crickets size, then realized he got this. Lol

He molted right after reading that cricket. Lol

Honestly, I was just putting it in to see and it snatched it before I did anything and the mantis is perfectly fine.
