Crab tank

_kai_ · 20-08-2010, 01:58 AM

Hey bros this is pics of my tank made for vampire crabs.Buying some plants soon maybe this sat. I have a few questions is the substrate(GEX soil) suitable for vampires?Bcos i see on internet and videos they use normal soil for their substrate. Pls help bros i want to make sure it is suitable and make any changes before buying the crabs

Nice setup bro! Looking good. I suggest you get a cover for your tank if not they will surely climb out.

How many crabs you intending to get btw? Might need more hiding places

I agree with bro above.. There was once i didnt cover my crab tank, it crawled up my dw, out of the tank and behind my table. Imagine the work and time needed to chase it and net it.. Just a heads up bro.

ok thanks bros.Ill add more plants and hiding spots.Im planning to get maybe 2 or 3 crabs if possible.The GEX soil substrate is fine for vampires?

Oh what a great set up, I have no advice because I don't really know about them but it looks good.
