Hermit crabs are hard to breed so if you want work look no further. You need at least five hermit crabs in a large tank with lots of plants. If you do have this and have a few males and females this could get ugly, the males fight to the death for each female and will kill others. When the winner defeats crabs he has the right to mate with any female, and the others have no right. Now this is how they do it. The male first courts her by going close and pinching his claws, then the male forces her to take her shell off by gripping it and taking it off then the takes his off an they mate four thirty minutes tops, then the ending they put the shells on and The End.
