An Ideal Crabitat

Every Hermit Crab is different, but the following conditions are needed to keep your hermit crab feeling it's best!
  1. Hermit Crabs need the humidity of their tank to be around 65 to 80%! You will need to buy a hygrometer to monitor your crabitat's humidity.
  2. Your tank's temperature should be around 72 to 80 degrees.
  3. Substrate that they are able to molt in. (Sand, "Hermit Soil", etc)
  4. Fresh Food (ex: Vegetables, Fruit, Grains, etc)
  5. Fresh Water AND Salt water!!
  6. Enough Room to run around and climb! (A 10 gallon tank is ideal)
  7. Lots of empty shells for your hermit crab to move in!
