No. Actually hermit crabs live on ground. It can't live in water it will drown. To clean them you submerge them in water for about a couple of seconds once every week.

How does a Hermit Crab swim?

It depends. If it is a land hermit crab "no", you do not want to put it in deep water to make it swim, it can actually just drown and die.

It needs water so it can swim, and just relax in it. it needs it!

What do you do if your new hermit crab and old hermit crab do not get along?

Put your new hermit crab in a bath of distilled water (make sure the water is no higher than the crab's legs) and let him/her crawl around in it for a while. Then, put your crabs back together and see how it goes. If that doesn't work, watch them for a while and maybe give them both baths. That happened to my crabs, but now they like each other.


Will a sand crab die if you put it on water?

Yes, you could possibly drown it. Hermit crabs can only swim in an inch of water. That is unless your hermit crab is huge, it could go in 2 inches. I WOULDN'T RISK IT.
