Hi guys,
would like to ask what are the basic requirements for a hermit crab tank....
One of my friends was given a few hermits and don't know what to do....
currently housing them in a 1.5ft tank with coral sand in it....
What are the things to add as "furniture"?
What do they feed on?
what special care do they need?
Thanks in advance!!

I shifted this to the vivariums section. I have a terrarium for them... I posted the tank here...
They feed on vegetables and starchy stuff... Mine only goes for carrots, white rice, apples... So, I guess you will need to explore and feed them a variety to find out...
No need for plants in the tank as they will tear the plants to pieces foraging for food...
And they are strong and good climbers... Keep the tabk covered unless you do not have a branch that they can climb and reach the tank edge...
