Where is a hermit crabs habitat?

Answer 1

If you are asking about a land hermit crab, their habitat is near the ocean, generally near a fresh water source. They live in the trees and forest around beaches, as well as the sand and rocks. They can travel a mile or more per day foraging for food. They require an extremely varied diet, so it is necessary for them to scavenge far and wide.

Some are called "tree crabs" (Coenobita Clypeatus, or Purple Pincer crabs) as they spend a large part of their time up in trees.

hermit crabs dig to bury themselves under the sand when they molt (shed their old exoskeleton).

Answer 2

Hermit crabs live on the bottom of the ocean, in the marine reefs. They are able to eat algae and debris that remains on the ocean's floor.
