The land hermit crab can go underwater, however, they can't breathe underwater. Hermit crab owners should use a sponge in water so the crab doesn't drown.

Can land hermit crabs breath under water?

In oxygenated water hermit crabs can survive for a short time. Straws can stay under the longest as their modified gills most closely resemble marine hermit crab gills. However, the time varies between the species. Generally a hermit crab will only be under for a minute or two. As long as your pool has an easy way for crabs to get out they are good at regulating when they have been under too long. A hermit crab will not drown if he has a way to climb out.
