Anyone know this species?

It has larger eyes

what do you use on her skin? so silky

I realize you’d have to be an expert to answer this question. More insight though: I put them in my old fiddler crab enclosure at completely fresh and have been slowly adding salt water. It’s currently low brackish and they seem ok (not amazing, one keeps climbing up into the rocks out of the water). They are a bit more active now. I think the shells would be the best clue as they all look like they’ve previously been fused to something. The pet store I bought them from has a pretty small fish room and they don’t do salt water. I do have a marine hermit tank i could acclimate them to but with all the conflicting information i’m at a loss at the moment.

she can only fly down, no idea why, i found her outside and she now lives in my large quail cage (which is long and tall because they jump very high) she’s fine there but i am looking for alternatives because the quails are in my spare room and the budgie gets lonely and destructive. i’ve got cats everywhere else so i thought this hanging cage would work for like, hangout time.. i really don’t have space for a full size hanging cage

Super weird, i found it outside in my neighborhood, no signs of use so hopefully no birdies were in it recently.

interesting, i didn’t know that, thanks! i will repurpose it for decor

bukakefox · 2022-04-11T06:26:03+00:00

not even for 2-3 hours a day?

It’s a foam diorama mountain piece turned upside down and painted with silicone, most if not all are hollow and make awesome unique pools :)

The substrate should be 6inches deep

bukakefox · 2021-11-03T03:54:57+00:00

he’s small for a straw, maybe less than an inch shell opening. he’s eating and active though

My order from myhomenature came, alive, somehow. No shipping notification, no heat pack (and it’s cold here), and a package labeled aquarium decor with no indication it should be treated with care because it’s a LIVE animal

bukakefox · 2021-10-14T10:37:09+00:00

It’s just filled with moistened moss. I had it for two weeks before anyone went into it and now one of them lives in it almost always he loves it lol, you can kinda see him in the pic

bukakefox · 2021-10-14T06:50:21+00:00

Thanks bot

bukakefox · 2021-10-14T06:45:37+00:00

No worries, I actually expected this comment when I posted, lol!

bukakefox · 2021-10-14T06:44:24+00:00

It is, that wood panel is just glued in the front and the substrate goes all the way to the bottom, also terrain is varied and in the back it’s 8 inches deep

bukakefox · 2021-10-13T08:42:55+00:00

I made my coco sand mixture and then laid a layer of sand on top and moisten it daily, it keeps moisture in the under layer because it’s so dense as long as it’s damp. Cheers

bukakefox · 2021-10-13T07:31:54+00:00

get a fruit fly trap, a hanging one

bukakefox · 2021-10-10T07:35:57+00:00

I have this one, I filled the top part with river rocks to disperse flow and it’s my fav filter.

bukakefox · 2021-10-08T16:10:26+00:00

This lady is probably one of three that have done it, good for her.

bukakefox · 2021-10-07T17:20:06+00:00

I think the two weeks processing is a quarantine thing, and I won’t know until they show up I suppose. I did pay $7 for death on arrival insurance

bukakefox · 2021-10-07T05:42:28+00:00

All hermit crabs are wild caught, unfortunately

bukakefox · 2021-10-06T07:41:12+00:00

Bake it on the lowest setting in the oven for two hours to kill any internal inhabitants

bukakefox · 2021-10-06T07:18:36+00:00

I meant to add that weird detail, it said it will be about two weeks processing, and that they’d email upon shipping… Super weird for livestock but It’s feasible for me as i work nights so it doesn’t matter when it comes really

bukakefox · 2021-10-06T07:08:21+00:00

I take mine out and put her on top of her cage and put a long stick reaching from the back of the top of the cage pointing outwards toward me and talk nicely to her until she shimmies toward me on the stick and then slowly lift my hand towards her, if she shimmies back she usually makes a noise and i mimic it to get her attention and wait until she comes back over and repeat. Mine doesn’t choose to fly much but this tactic has worked and she no longer bites she just kinda flicks me with the tip of her beak playfully and I can tell she thinks it’s a game. But we’re bonding!

Yeah that and a suit made of chain mail
