not really. the bigger the better.
Hermit crab mites are like head lice for crabs. They are small wingless insects that crawl around inside the shells of hermit crabs. And, just like lice, they have nothing to do with how clean or dirty the habitat or crabs are. Mites can hide out in hermit crab toys, bedding and even food.
No, hermit crabs like many other creatures have exoskeletons.
because they don,t like hermit crabs
a small cage, like a plastic fish tank with rocks

Hermit Crabs like Humidity. They need 70-80% humidity to survive. But, if it like 100 degrees and no humidity i recommend to put a fan or air conditioner on then, or in their cage.
It is all up to you. I like hermit crabs better, though.
Hermit crabs like to be with others, like how other animals like to be. It always nice to have another partner. I had several hermit crabs and they lasted longer than ones with out any other hermit crab.
There like you and me, (well, most likely) they don't like to be so cooped up. Take out of the cage and play with everyday, or at least every other day, that way, it will not be tempted to escape.
Sometimes mites can kill hermit crabs it depends if the mites are all over the cage and on the hermit crabs. if there are only like 3 it should not harm them as much. mites are tiny white bugs they can also be black. mites will harm the hermit crab if there are tons. just clean your tank if you mites. by Josie j
