Yes, so if a hermit crab is molting put some card board in between the hermit crab and the others because the others might dig it up and eat it alive.

Make SURE both sides of hermit crabs have food and water. Even though the hermit crab might not dig up that, day it might while you are away, and it will need food and water as soon as it comes up.

Should you be putting food in tank when hermit crab is molting?

No, you should not put food in the tank when a hermit crab is molting. During this time, hermit crabs are vulnerable and may not eat, as they focus on shedding their exoskeleton. It’s best to provide a quiet environment and only offer food once the molting process is complete and the crab has returned to its normal behavior.

Do you need to feed your hermit crab if it bites to much?

Hermit crabs do not bite, they pinch. When a hermit crab pinches you that means that they are intimidated and stressed out, and possibly hungry. In your crabitat there should always be fresh food available to your hermit crab so it does not starve.
