First, you'll need saltwater and fresh water, the crabs will like to have a net or rock of some sort to climb and play on, they also like a separate dish for their food. Hermit crab toys are available in a local pet store. A coconut cut in half and a doorway will do perfectly for a house and hiding spots for your hermit crab.
