This is my new 10 gallon habitat/terrarium that I bought for my hermit crabs. I am going to show you how to give your crabs a happy life. In your terrarium, you should have
1) A sandy area to simulate the beach for your crabs
2) A saltwater pool in the sandy area to give your crabs the feeling that they are at eh ocean
3) A little house or area where they can go inside
4) A bowl for their drinking water
5) A bowl for their food
6) Crab food. I recommend Crab Cakes or Crab Bites; Vegetables or fruit also works
7) For the rest of the habitat, where it is not sandy, you should have gravel
8) Some extra shells that are bigger or the same size for your crabs
9) A climbing fence or wall
10) And last, but certainly NOT least... YOUR CRABS!!!
It will also give you ideas on what you should feed your crabs and how you should set up their habitat/terrarium.
