Can a crab drown?

Yes, hermit crabs can drown. But it is still very important to have distilled water in the tank for your hermit crab to drink. Putting a natural sponge can help hermit crabs from drowning. Also do not put enough water in the bowl for it to drown. Hermit crabs also need SEA salt water for them to bathe in to get their exoskeleton stronger. Hermit crabs need distilled water because the clorine burs their modified (hardened) gills, the gills are not the kind fish have. Hermies gills need moisture in the air. so have the tank have 70 - 80% humidity.
