take the dead crab out of the shell.
This depends on the type of hermit crab, along with the age, and in some cases, gender.
Hermit crab.
Shell fish are more like hermit crabs living in a shell, crayfish are like mini lobsters....Crayfish, Shellfish, Jellyfish and Silverfish are not real fish!The answer is NO.
If it is a hermit crab, then it is like any other hermit crab, so just take care of it as you would to a regular hermit crab :)

get a large cup and put the shell or the toy inside. Then get a pan and boil the water inside it. put the water in the cup and wait 2 minutes then take the shells out of the cup and put them in the hermit crab cage.
Yes, the hermit crab remains in it's (outer) sea shell/home when it molts. However, when the hermit crab molts it sheds it's old exoskeleton much like a snake sheds it's skin, pushing the old exoskeleton out of the sea shell, and forms a new exoskeleton. The new exoskeleton is soft at first and takes time to harden. The hermit crab's "tail and belly" section remains soft and vulnerable requiring a hard outer shell/sea shell for protection.
Hermit crabs need a shell because inside of the their shell is their soft tail or body. It needs it's shell because other hermit crabs can hurt or damage their tail or body that's inside of the shell. Hermit crabs will always be in a shell. The only time when they aren't in a shell is that quick few seconds when they change shells into a bigger one to grow. If your hermit crab is running around without it's shells there is something wrong with your crab. Go to the Mall of America (Nickaloden Universe) what ever you want to call it and ask the person why. I bet he can help you.
