HOW MANY CRABS DO YOU HAVE,WHAT SIZES ARE THEY & HOW LONG HAVE YOU HAD THEM?-(I always say name something they are the size of like a grape, ping-pong ball, etc.)
I have 4=2pps and 2 Es 3 of the 4 are down and Rocky(PP)is up (about the size of a large grape)
WHAT SPECIES OF CRABS DO YOU HAVE-(Self-explanatory)
2 Es and 2 PP
TANK # AND SIZE(S))- (ie: I have 2 tanks, 75 gallon & 55 gallon)
2 tanks, 29 gallon and 75 gallon that I am waiting to move them in
LID TYPE-(ie: Glass, aquarium hood, etc)
Plywood wrapped in cling wrap
SUBSTRATE USED-(ie: I use playsand and Eco Earth in an approx 5:1 ratio)
Eco and playsand at approx 5;1
SUBSTRATE DEPTH-
5in due to settling and it being my first set up
HUMIDITY SOURCE-(ie: Do you use a humidifier, mist daily, etc)
Bubbler in the pool and moss pit
HEAT SOURCE-(ie: Under tank heater, heat bulb) Where are they located? UTH on back wall and clamp lamp
WHAT IS YOUR TEMP/HUMIDITY ON AVERAGE?-(Please give averages for both day & night)
84temp and 85hum day and 81temp & 85hum night on average but I was having trouble with high humidity climbing towards 90 throughout the night and having to wake up every cpl hours to vent
WHAT TYPE OF GAUGE DO YOU USE (analog or digital)? (ie; I use AcuRite digital gauges)
AcuRite
Where in the tank is the gauge located? (ie; 2-3" off the sub, centrally located)
About middle resting just above a cocoa hut
HOW DO YOU TREAT YOUR WATER?-(ie: Tap water conditioner, name brand)
Api
HOW DO YOU MAKE YOUR SALT WATER?-(ie: Do you use Oceanic or Instant Ocean-name the brand)
Instant ocean
HOW BIG/DEEP ARE YOUR POOLS?
Fw is about 1/2 inch at its depress part and same for Sw
WHAT DO YOU FEED YOUR CRABS?-(If you feed other than fresh food, what is it called & where do you get it?)
I feed everything fresh from my meals that I find on the safe food list along with birdseed and fruits mixed and cuttlebone and dried meal worms and grasshopper
WHAT TYPES OF HIDES/CLIMBS DO YOU HAVE?-(ie: coco-hut, cholla wood, etc)
DO YOU HAVE AN ISOLATION TANK?-
Not yet, that is the intended purpose of the 29 once I get them to the 75
HOW MANY EXTRA SHELLS AND WHAT SIZES DO YOU HAVE?-(Self-explanatory)
I have anywhere between 6-8 available for each crab since my shell shop has grown for the new tank
DESCRIBE THE PROBLEM & ANY OTHER INFO YOU THINK APPLIES-
Rocky is still looking pretty pale although I have been able to get him some more color back in but I am at a loss on what to do. I am placing an order on Sachs store tonight but I need some advice to get me through until it arrives and also what's best to order for him right now, he is my little man that always has been interested in me and I don't want to let him down
