Comments: Add some comments about your crabitat and any changes you may have made recently.Hello!My Name is Maribel A. Soto
My email is, sotomaribel298@yahoo.com
I live in texas, USA.
My crabitat is 24 inches in length, 13 inches in width, and 16 inches in height.
My crabitat is a twenty gallon tank.
My substrate involves Eco earth for now, but I bought play sand which I will combine when I’m going to clean out the tank.
What i have in the tank involves a bit of leaves, two water bowls, sometimes two food bowls depending on what I make for them, alot of shells, a hut, a climbing background, a rope and a net.
They used to live in a small critter keeper, (ew, i know.) when my little cousins were given them as a pet! They didn’t want them anymore and basically gave them to my sister whom wouldn’t treat them correctly, especially with her six year old son who is a little too rough for them. I had persuaded to let me care for them and I just adored them, lol. I moved them into a 5.5 gallon to a 20 gallon in a short period of two months and bought what i thought were the needed toys, heaters, and food for them.Name: Amber Miner

Description of Substrate: Playsand with ee for main substrate. I have a beach area that has coconut chunks and crushed shells and small rocks next to my pools to help keep the pools clean, as well as under the shells. I also have tons of moss and various leaf litter on top and mixed in.
Description of Tank Items: 3 large drift wood, several cork bark, Magnetic “Rock Cave”, corner cork round and moss cave (a favorite spot!), coconut halves and bridge, hand crocheted and designed hemp hammock with bridge/ladder option and trap door, 3 varieties of “Plant tiles” covering the walls, 4 varieties of vines. 2 large deep heated pools with bubblers and an “overflow catch area”, 2 hoods with full spectrum lights and an additional UVB 100 light for supplemental light. Oh, and a few live plants 🙂
Comments: This is the new re-do after taking my topper off due to mold. That tank will be cleaned and set up next to this one later.How long until the deadline for submissions? I have stuff for my crabitat coming in the mail right now. I would like to put them in before I submit my setup.
Alrighty, I got my pictures. I didn’t get my shipment in time so maybe next month I can add the water feature to my pics. I have my pics here: here

Description of Substrate: Play sand mixed 50/50 with Eco Earth
Description of Tank Items: Netting, Timed lighting, Custom Fogger that I built myself, Deep salt + fresh dishes with rocks on the bottom, Large mangrove root and smaller logs I found in Florida, 3 shells shops with all natural shells, a fake tree that serves as a way out of one the dishes, and a cave that I dug into the substrate.
Comments: I have items for my false bottom / drainage layer coming in the mail. I also have things to create a water feature coming. My custom fogger keeps the terrarium nice and humid. My tank stays around %79 RH and 80F at all times. I also have a 10 gallon isolation tank for when a crab chooses to molt. I have 7 hermit crabs in the terrarium at the moment. I am going to order some isopods for the tank soon. Almost everything in my tank I made myself. The fogger, all the logs and roots, the shells shops, the water dishes,the lighting system, and the wiring I created myself. I don’t believe in supporting large businesses so I build a lot of my things. I also am going to order some things from Isopod Connection. I spend a lot of time tuning and making my crabitat better.
