Nothing may be wrong. If it smells weird, it may be dead, but don't assume that. It may be scared. Try picking it up and see if it moves. If it is just in it's cage it may be resting/sleeping.

What do you do if your hermit crab is sick?

Though there are few illnesses that a hermit crab gets you can tell when your hermit crab is in distress by a few symptoms. 1. Streaking - a hermit crab does not leave it's shell unless something is wrong. 2. Dropping Limbs - this is not a normal behavior, if your hermit crab has dropped limbs something is wrong. 3. Not moving/sluggish movement. Going into a hibernative state is a reaction to something being wrong, usually in the environment such as low humidity/temperature.
