So I am aware that this is an old thread. But, I just wanted to clarify that the title of the thread WAS a joke. Apparently a bad one. Sorry guys.

Also, to whoever mentioned molting - I know. All I had at the time was the mulch (left over from the croc skink) so I used it up. I was eventually able to switch over to sand, and since then the tank has developed into this:



The 2 crabs turned into 6 and then in the past two weeks or so ... 7. I don't buy them; I only rescue unwanted hermits. Everyone is alive and well and they've all gone through at least one molt - two crabs have had two molts. that's a 40gal tank which stays out on the patio with 80* weather and 80% humidity pretty much permanently.
