Crabs

Many things can stress out a hermit crab. You should have at least 1 gallon of space per hermit crab. Hermies also need the right temp and humidity which BOTH is between 70 and 80. Most hermit crabs you buy are purple pinchers. They are climbers so have alot of climbing toys such as bark for them (do not crowd the tank) they need distilled water, and SEA salt water as well. you should spray their tank LIGHTLY once a day. and have at least 2 hermies.

yes they do becuse if they dont the part that goes in the shell is very tender and soft and can get dameged very easy so its good to have difernt sized empty shells in the cage so the crab can change the shells when needed

pick it up and if it doesnt respond it may have died

Betta pellets are designed for Bettas to eat. Hermit crab pellets are designed for Hermit crabs to eat. Goldfish flakes are designed for Goldfish to eat. Are you getting the message? If you wish your Betta to do well, feed it Betta food.

i think that the crabs lay their egga by their and the they are goin gto be in one of the ells and thenthye are goingto b in one of the cells and then they are goingto be in one of th eships where they are goingtoi to be

Noooooo! A crab is an arthropod! (invertabrate)

Depending on the size of the crab, as many as 7 to 8 dozen crab will fill a bushel. Jumbo crabs (6 to 6-1/2 " in dimensions) will yield 5 to 6 dozen per bushel. Large crabs (5-1/2 to 6"), 6 to 7 dozen per bushel, and Medium crabs (5 to 5-1/2"), 7 to 8 dozen per bushel

Crabs directly manipulate and chew their foods by using their mouthparthensispars and pinchers. The doesnt stomach grinds food and digestive juices reduce food to a paste like substance. The stomach contents are often hard to identify due to chicken their highly reduced state.

Im not sure what the answer is exactly,but, an ecological niche is how(in your case)a carb makes a living... as in where does it live(how does it make a living?) and what is its job?(what does it do for a living?)

After having called Poison Control to check to see if my friend (who ate the severely affected crab) needed medical attention for having imbibed crab that showed signs of extreme decay through the aroma of highly concentrated ammonia. The attendee on the phone said not much could be done, that the sickness the person was feeling would go away in 24-36 hours. He advised that we keep my friend hydrated, and provide a supportive environment. Not much else could be done. My friend still has a numb throat and sensitive stomach, but her dizzyness and blurred vision have gone. I recommend calling your local poison control center and err on the side of caution, letting them know your particular situation and asking what can be done to alleviate the symptoms.

the largest spider in the world is the camel spider reaching the size of a dinner plate it can run up to 25 mph. they got their name because it is said that they latch on to a camels stomach and lay its eggs and also eat the camels bellies. they can jump about 3 ft in the air.

No hermit crabs inspect a new shell inside of their cage the they pull them self out of the shell and then drop them self into a new shell. there are videos on youtube.com of crabs changing shells. so provide your crab with extra shells. i am a hermit crab owner i have watched my crabs change shells it is called molting.

No, there are chemicals present in paper that can be dangerous for your crabs.

The paper would also act as a wicking agent to pull moisture from the hermit crab. You definitely do not ever want to use any kind of litter or paper meant for mammals in a hermit crab tank.

The best substrates to use for your hermit crabs are an Aragonite sand put out by a company like CaribSea (found in reef stores and pet stores that cater to salt water aquariums) or Coconut fiber bedding (also known as Coir) known by brand names like Eco Earth.

You do NOT want any sort of bedding that contains conifers such as cedar or pine, as it is an irritant to hermit crabs an can also possibly cause them to sicken.

Play sand is a questionable substrate, as you never can know if it contains contaminants that cannot be sterilized or washed out, and may have no color or odor. Some have had crabs die from choosing this cheaper option, so it's not worth the risk.

Join the forums. There are crabbers there who have had their crabs for 10+ years. They know what to recommend and what to stay away from.

Not usually. They should be the same size, and eat or harm each other when threatened. If your crabs seem aggressive, separate them. If they fight over food, feed them separately. That should solve the problem!

Yes ghost crabs are edible as are most eastern shore crustacea.....you must boil them or bake them until the internal temeperature reaches at least 160F.

great with butter and garlic..............bon appetite'

In a way yes they do, but you can't tell really. they show there emotions physically not mentally though.

the way the green crab protects itself is by using its claws and or its larger pincher

With the open end upwards otherwise all the good luck is falling from it.

Aquatic crustaceans like crabs, lobsters and shrimp belong to phylum Arthropoda, a major division in the taxonomic classification characterized by joint appendages, chitin exoskeletons, and segmented bodies.

No. Hermit crabs and sea anemones have a symbiotic relationship that is not the typical prey/predator relationship of most organisms.

Hermit crabs will eat just about anything humans eat. So you could try making them a fruit salad with apples, bananas, grapes, and you could even through in a few carrot pieces to help boost their carotene ( carotene helps them keep a bright, healthy color in their skin)

Crab alley is in Triton Avenue. You can find Triton Avenue in Olde Town, the second entrance downhill.

Specifically in Triton Avenue it is by Suzie Gryphonbane, the storm wizard that you help throughout missions there. From where Suzie Gryphonbane is, go downhill and go left. You should see a rope. You can only go into Crab Alley by the rope if you have or had the quest "Trouble Underfoot."

If you do not have this quest, go to Sohomer Sunblade, the guy you got the Kraken mission from. He should give you this mission if you are level 12+.

You can't get in if you're not a member. You either have to become a member, or buy the area with crowns.

Algae mainly. But crabs will eat almost anything smaller than themselves e.g. small molluscs, worms, fungi, bacteria and detritus.

yes because they think you will harm them so stay away from them

I think they eat apples all the time to ceep them selfs red.
