Hermit crabs live on land, for they only need water to drink, not to live on/in.
A crawl fish can go only the same amout of time that a fish does without water.

i have hermit crabs and normally they will smell or they will just not move for a long time
A Hermit crab can live up to 100 years of age
About 2-3 days as long as you have someone giving them water everyday
Your hermit crab shouldn't go long without food or water. The longest they should go is a whole day,
no, so don't put water in your tank that is to deep. It is still important to have drinking water, though, so try putting a sponge in some water instead. yes,they swim but in shallow water,i have a hermit crab and it has a bowl with shallow water in it.My hermit crab goes swimming sometimes,but don't force the hermit crab.
The shell that the hermit crab adopts and wears and changes many times throughout his decades long lifetime helps him in several ways. The hermit crab has a very delicate abdomen that is protected by the shell. Without this shell, his abdomen could become punctured very easily and the crab would die. The hermit crab also carries water in his shell to keep the abdomen moist. If it were to dry out, again, the hermit crab would die. The crab balances the salinity of the water within his shell by accessing fresh or salt water as needed. The shell is also his shelter, and protects him from predators. The ideal fitting shell will allow the hermit crab to pull fully inside and to block off the opening with his large pincer.
No, Hermit Crabs and Fiddler crabs require two different environments. The Hermit Crab would drown in the water a Fiddler Crab needs. You can always ask your local pet store if there is any way possible though. Some hermit crabs live on land others live in water even land hermit need two enter salt water , fiddler crabs are brackish or fresh hermit crabs can't breathe in those environments
