A Moment in My Aquarium
A short video of my 20-gallon aquarium. It houses 6 neon tetras, my betta Arty, a male bristlenose pleco, and a dozen amano and ghost shrimp. It has been running for about 3 years. Sorry for the quality, it was shot on my phone :)

"Purple Pincher" Caribbean Hermit Crabs
Просмотров 3,6 тыс.5 лет назад
Some clips of my "Purple Pincher" or Caribbean Hermit Crabs. These guys will live over 30 years and grow to the size of a softball with the proper care. Their care includes deep moist substrate, high humidity, a warm environment, and pools for them to completely submerge in. Hermit crabs are very social animals that should live in groups of 3 or more. In the wild they will gather in groups of h...
My Crabitat Tour

This is my first hermit crab video ever! I am just going over the basics of my tank. Sorry for the quality, my next one will be better! Enjoy! PS, in the video I said one of their shell shops has 10 shells. It actually has near 20, and I have about 45 shells in the tank in total (~5 per crab). I am very new to all of this and talking on camera makes me nervous, but somehow that was the only mis...

    Your pool size doesn't affect the amount of humidity that stays in your tank? My tank is similar in size and my pools are way bigger and I'm thinking my pool size needs to be bigger but it's looking like that's not the case it may be my lid not being sealed good enough

    Really comfy tank for the hcrabs. 80 gallon tank probably 120cm x 50cm x 60cm

    Quick question. I'm about to start a crabitat and I was wondering, is it required to have both fresh and saltwater or can I just do one?

    Is it OK to feed them homemade hermit crab food? The seller claimed it already has crumbed dry insects, eggshells, coconut, shrimp, grains, etc. I'm planning to feed them that (staple) and additional fresh food that I occasionally have (leftover from daily cooking, like beansprout, broccoli, spinach, corn). Thanks Emily

    • @taytakesthedub
      @taytakesthedub Год назад

      this comment is old but if you havent upgraded pls do. it should be 10 gallons per crab so 10 for 3 is way too small

    have you ever noticed that the hermit crabs just change shells if they see new ones around ? (even if they dont moult)

    • @hopefultraveler3543
      @hopefultraveler3543 Год назад

      Interesting! I wonder if they look at other crabs' shells and try to "keep up with the Shellys" by changing their own shells.

  • @user-lo9vu8ok1m
    @user-lo9vu8ok1m 4 года назад

    I was wondering how they drink? Might be a silly question aha but do they have to fully submerge themselves in order to do so? Also, how do you prepare their water? Do you use a specific brand of salt water? What kind of freshwater do you use? Id love to be fully prepared for my future hermies!

    • @happygirl9552
      @happygirl9552 4 года назад

      Y they use their claw to scoop up water and drink it :) it is recommended to make their pool deep enough so that they can submerge themselves because this is necessary for shell water.

    • @happygirl9552
      @happygirl9552 4 года назад

      for salt water, theres brands like instant ocean and for fresh water u can use any dechlorinated water such as bottled water etx

      @emilyshermits1304 4 года назад

      Hi! I like to buy shells from Amazon, Etsy, and Naples Sea Shells. My hermit crabs are Purple Pinchers so I mainly buy turbo shells! The cave came from PetSmart in the reptile decor.
