I bought 4 fidler crabs today. I don't have any substrate in the tank but have some rocks, decorations, and one of those turtle ramp things (returning tomorrow so I can create a more natural look, got talked into it when I knew I didnt really want it LOL).
The crabs are not coming out of the water. Is this normal? Is it just because they are still scared from being moved? I haven't started getting them adjusted to a brackish tank yet. I didn't want to shock them too much, and will start adding the brackish water tomorrow.
They are eating and even fighting with each other. One of them keeps picking up a smaller one, and holding it above his head (I've named him Rocky LOL). Not sure what's up with that.
Thanks for any insight!
