I haven't been able to find too much info about caring for these little guys.
Here are two sites that looked pretty decent. http://kent.k12.oh.us/MrZ/zooclubweb...oweencrab.html

I have them in a 10 gal tank with substrate similar to the compressed Zoo Med eco earth. They are sharing a heating pad with Compton, he only uses half the pad so the rest is resting on their tank. Then I just have a small fresh water bowl, small salt water bowl, a food dish and some cage furniture for them to climb on. I feed them a mix of table scraps and prepared hermit crab food. They seem to enjoy it. They are very interesting creatures for sure!
Ya I have seen it there for awhile too, this was just the first time we actually brought a camera lol I will be there too this weekend getting some feeders and substrate. I will be wearing a black hoodie with silver writing on the front and a dark green plaid hat. Say hi if u see me!![]()
