Hermit crabs eliminate waste through a process similar to other crustaceans. They have a specialized organ called the anus that expels waste products, primarily in the form of fecal matter. Additionally, they excrete nitrogenous waste as ammonia through their gills, which helps maintain their internal balance of salts and water. This efficient waste elimination is crucial for their survival in their often humid and aquatic environments.
I know it's gross but, the hermit crab excretes waste in their shell then they scoop it out mostly in their water dishes.
