What is a crab's adaptive feature?
Crabs can hold a little puddle of water over there gills, this allows them to be out of water and still breath. It is an adaptation to the inter-tidal zone so they can live for a time out of water.
From the Christmas Island brochure:
Red Crabs' diet consists mainly of fallen leaves, fruits,
flowers and seedlings. They prefer fresh green leaves but will
eat any fallen leaves. They are not solely vegetarian however.
They will eat dead crabs and birds, the introduced Giant
African snail, and palatable human refuse if the opportunity
presents itself.

How warm should your hermit crab habitat be?
Some heat but not too much. I would recommend buying a hermit crab heating pad or a heating light. Just be careful because it could lower the humidity slightly, so you might have to spray the tank more often.
What kind of camouflage does a crab have?
* Decorator crab research has centered on the areas of camouflage and dietary preference. In a study done by Kilar and Lou (1986) it was found that a decorator crabs' feeding selection is not independent of decorating activityhttp://www.thecephalopodpage.org/MarineInvertebrateZoology/Macr... * Observations of 129 crabs suggest that the colour depends neither on depth nor on size, intermoult period, diet, reproductive period but it might be connected to genetic factors and might help crab to camouflagehttp://www.ingentaconnect.com/content/klu/hydr/2006/00000557/00...

Where can you go for all you can eat crab legs buffet at a casino?
There's a place in Coal City off of I55 called Gippers II. If you live in the south western suburbs near Orland Park its about a 40 minute drive down I80 to I55 just past Channahon. It cost $29.95 for all you can eat crab legs and they were good. The restaurant is attached to a huge bar with an outdoor beer garden and has a local flare. Nothing fancy but you defintely get your moneys worth. The bring our a plate of 4 egs then 3 legs each plate afterwards.
Depends on the type of crab, some are small, some are large

What kind of water do hermit crabs need?
Salt water hermit crabs need to live in ocean water that has been properly set up (like a reef aquarium). Land hermit crabs need access to both fresh and salt water but live the majority of their lives on land.
Crabs avoid predators by walking away from them and hiding under rocks and sand. They can also use their claws to keep predators away.
Are hermit crabs sea creatures?
hermit crabs are not true crabs, but are more closely related to shrimps. I read it in a book!
Hermit crabs are more closely related to squat lobstersand porcelain crabs than they are to true crabs.
Adding on to that, yes, Hermit crabs are very similar to true crabs. They are closely related, but not as closely as the aforementioned creatures.
Dear Asker,
Yes, indeed, Hermit Crabs do have hardened gills. They harden even better and can breathe even better when they are at or in a place with the temperature above 70% but below 80%.
I hope this answers your question.
Sincerely,
