The Setup

Published by Cynthia at 8:32 am under Crabitat

crabbitatWithSandOkay.. well, here is the setup! I have the sand in and the UTH on the back. Near the heater it temp is 79F. Away from the heater on the far front corner the temp is 77F. Hrm, I wonder if that should be a warmer spread. I’m not sure, I’ll have to read up.

The humidity is about 70%. That needs to be about 80%. I have to wet down the sand more, I think that will increase the humidity. I need to get some declorinator first, though, as I don’t want to just throw tap water in there.

It’s coming along. I’m now checking out some medium land hermit crabs to populate the tank with. I’m thinking 3 at first. Maybe 4. I’d eventually like to get 5 total, but we’ll see how that goes.

And I want to knit a hemp hammock to put in, but I need to find where to buy some good undyed hemp. And I’d like the back to have a climbing wall, probably a tightly knitted hemp climbing wall.

I’m getting excited!
