Crab escape!

Anyone knows how to keep a crab in a 1x1x1
.5 tank? I got cover. But it runs up the HOF and escapes.

Why would you need hof? What crab are you keeping? They climb up whatever they can.

Sorry guys, my computer was down, so I couldn't upload photos. This is the setup. I have given up looking for the crab. My colleague and I searched the entire floor of our office on the day it went missing. Still cannot find.

hmm how big was your crab? able to crawl into the filtration area?

even so i cant believe a crab is able to crawl out vertically.... maybe someone took it?

Small crab. About 1.5 inches wide? My colleague said he saw it peeking out from the ohf outlet before. Didn't think much about it. Then next day gone. :/
