Hi everyone,
My red claw crab has recently become pregnant. I wonder if there is anything special that I have to take care of, for e.g. special diet, more regular water changes etc? Thanks for any advice!

Wow! How do you know it's pregnant? I didn't know you could breed Hermits, is that what you did? If so, how did you do it?

That's cool! Sorry I couldn't offer advice.

Hi
Mine is a red claw crab, not hermit crab. Sadly, I think the female pregnant crab got defensive and aggressive and killed the male one 2 days ago :(

Do they have to come out of the water? I always wanted to keep red claws, but I never knew if they need a special set-up so they can come onto dry land. I know this is an old thread, but if you can let me know I would appreciate it they are really cool creatures!
