If you have a smaller tank just try diffrent times, like turn it off before you go to school or work, and turn it on when you get home, or turn it off at night, and leave it on all day. Just expereiment.

How do you bath a hermit crab?

It is not necessary to bathe your hermit crabs but if you would like to bathe them, this is what I do: -fill a container with enough dechlorinated water to fully submerge your largest crab. -Place the crab in the water upside-down -Leave the crab in the water for two minutes. Don't leave it in the water for too long or it will drown. Once you place the crab in the water upside-down, it will flip itself over and begin walking around or just sit there.
