From the Christmas Island brochure:

Red Crabs' diet consists mainly of fallen leaves, fruits,

flowers and seedlings. They prefer fresh green leaves but will

eat any fallen leaves. They are not solely vegetarian however.

They will eat dead crabs and birds, the introduced Giant

African snail, and palatable human refuse if the opportunity

presents itself.

Halloween crabs will eat fruit, dead fish and crab food. They are scavengers and live on the land, not the water, however, they do need access to water.
