Hermit Crabs From Port Dickson

Have been taking care of 5 hermit crabs since I got back from the glo trip to Port Dickson, and been doing fine until today. Its been 3 weeks and counting! Took out an old fish tank from my high school days and bought a new water plate for their home. Taking care of them is pretty straightforward. Fresh water and a small portion of food everyday, wipe out the crap once in awhile, and 5 minutes of exercise a day on the floor or wherever. Planning to get sand for them, but still deciding on the commitment that brings. A friend keeps telling me how terrible adding sand would be, about how other animals or insects could make it their home as well and such. We'll see how it goes.


As you can see, I've not actually found a perfect place in the house to keep them yet. So they sit in front of my sisters prizes and trophies. They seem to like the upper left corner, maybe the gold medals?




These 2 are total opposites. One is brave and adventurous, while the other shy and would rather prefer to be upside down


A shot of them getting out of the water plate I got them. Natural looking plate, nothing much to say about it, so I'll just say that its guud~
