just put some food there and leave it overnight. next day, see whether the food is still there. most likely, the food will be gone. crabs are shy and rarely come out in human presence.

My wife new pets..... VAMPIRES!!!!!!!!

bro sgbetta, do i see a fish inside?

[EvolutionZ]

yea, i see guppies.. FYI, those crabs are land crab. they just need a shallow tub of water for them to go in and eat. a "island" set up is not ideal for them.

It will attack the guppy if given a chance, would be better to remove the guppy

from experience.

They do not just need a shallow tub of water. They need sufficient water to be able to moult, most preferably being able to cover them fully. Add some coral chips or coral sand to the water source. They require calcium to moult too.

For vampire, they are a bit more territorial, so giving them more space per pair would be ideal.

have fun!

put some moss or wood hanging over the water source. helps them climb out. wont drown.
