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.

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.
