Fiddler crabs typically come out of the water during low tide, when their burrows are exposed. They are primarily terrestrial and spend a significant amount of time on land, foraging for food and engaging in social behaviors. During high tide, they retreat to their burrows to avoid predation and the rising water. Overall, their activity is closely tied to tidal cycles, emerging several times a day as the tide recedes.
