sora Enthusiast Posts: 184 Kudos: 96 Votes: 134 Registered: 28-Feb-2007	any ideas on how to do a crab setup. i know they need areas out of water. just any ideas on how to set this up? how much land do they need? how much water? should it be brackish? thanks!

Some are fully aquatic, some are land, some are brackish, salt, fresh, etc For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett

sora Enthusiast Posts: 184 Kudos: 96 Votes: 134 Registered: 28-Feb-2007	well a fully aquatic crab would be nice. as long as it was freshwater. I cant remember the name of the crabs i saw at the LFS. but they did need land. they had one big white claw. sorry that probably doesnt help much The true test of character is not how much we know how to do, but how we behave when we dont know what to do.
