They seem to hoard into this coconut, even though there is about 3-4 more hiding huts. sometimes like 6 in there.


Enjoying a meal!

ALL RIGHT---     !!!

WAY TO GO...I love it!   

[LordRhal]

Thanks =)  I'm pretty proud of it myself!

[cococrisp]

Love it! Especially the little baskets. Thanks for posting pics!

[One_Onion]

Pretty cool. This'll help me when I get a taller tank, to see how to make higher levels. But, how do you change the water of the waterfall?

[LordRhal]

the pump is also a filter as well. I have to fill it up everyday as well, so it doesn`t go below the pump. So with all that it`s pretty much fresh water all the time. If it ever got really dirty, with earth and such, I can take the whole waterfall out pretty easily. I put leaves around the pond to try and avoid earth going into the tank.
Glad I can be an inspiration

I had a slight problem with the baskets because the end part was kind of drooping, but then I bought the thick vine and used it as a leg for the basket.
They are really active at night, it`s a lot of fun to see them roam around.

[cococrisp]

Yeah, I moved mine out of my room because I couldn't sleep as they clanked and climbed around.

[LordRhal]

I hardly hear them now

BASKETS!  That's brilliant!  I too was inspired, and started shopping for baskets last night.  Is natural, untreated, peeled willow safe for hermies?  Are those baskets the kind they make for bunnies to chew on?

[Donny (TMNT)]

Nice setup! I like the skull-water fountain thingie, I always wanted one of those!

[LordRhal]

My baskets are untreated bamboo baskets =) I got the idea from jellybean
I hated the fact that my shells were full of dirt and they would get burried. Now they have access to allll the shells they could ever want hehe. (I received a batch of 30 I ordered off the crab patch). I think I have 60ish shells now

[cococrisp]

My crabs are such lousy climbers. They always fall of stuff, especially the big ones. I don't think they'd ever make it to the top, lol! Yeah, I am tired of having dirty shells!

[LordRhal]

have they molted recently? If they suck at climbing, it could be because they haven't molted recently and their little nails are worn out.

[xAiZaOnigirix]

I LOVE it! what a nice tank! i want it 

As for the climbing, mine used to suck too. But i think them practicing actually helped more then molting. I think it also depends on the crab. My hurly is skiddish, so when he comes out he takes off without watching where he's going. Todd is more calm, and had already mastered climbing upsidedown when i got him (the other are still working on that....)

[Donny (TMNT)]

My shells ALWAYS have dirt in them, but I think Shelle likes 'em that way. She keeps doing it!

   This is Wasabi. He is a PP, (Purple Pincher) and sadly, he has passed on. He was the biggest out of all the crabs I have owned so far, and out of them all, he lived the longest. He lived about 6-7 months.

~Hermies4Ever~

Land hermit crabs store a small amount of water in their shells just to keep their gills wet, thus allowing them to breath.
