    Volume of Crabitat: 20 gallon high
    Description of Substrate: Play sand only
    Description of Tank Items cork bark, fish netting, hemp hammock, some plastic plants, moss pit
    Comments: I just spruced up the tank today, I added some plastic aquarium plants that I had from my old fish tank. Also added a new statue that looks like a tree with fungus growing on it, I found it at Petsmart online, only 10 bucks and free shipping, I need to add some more hiding places so I added the plants and some glass rocks I had from years ago. Stacked the cork bark on top. I know they will knock it all over but that is the fun of changing things around. The moss pit is their favorite 3 crabs are always jammed in there. I like the neon color of the plants, brightens it up.
