I am looking to setup a 10gal aquarium to host a moon crab (Adopting it from my friend, this is what he told me it is.) I want to create the best habitate for it to reside in. Now I have been trying to do as much research as possible so that I may give this creature a good home.
Ive come across many documents saying that the moon crab is much like a hermit crab, as in its habitat and how it lives. I just want to confirm this with you guys.
Right now I do believe that my friend has it hosted in 1/2 a 20gal tank. It has a shallow dish for water (freshwater, declorinated) and then just a sandy substrate. I would ideally like to give "Greg" some plant-life as well.
Basically I am just looking to figure out exactly what kind of habitat I am to give it. Any information, even if its repeatative, would be much appretiated!
Thank you in advanced, Mike
