Can anyone tell me whats a good setup for fiddler crabs.?
I have a 10 Gallon tank.and a submercible filter used for turtles.now what should i need to have a good setup to keep these fiddler crabs alive? and what about brackish water? how would i do that?
You need to have a land area on one side - you can stack up some rocks to create a wall and put some gravel behind that, or use a plastic container with sand and use a brach in the water for them to climb up to it.
A heater should also be used.
You do want to have a brackish tank for them - and you want to use one of the mixes for saltwater tanks instead of aquarium salt. The marine salt has added minerals they use in making/hardening their shells and has buffers to raise the pH a little. There isn't any exact amount of salt, since the crabs live in areas where the freshwater from rivers mix with saltwater from oceans and the salinity will change with the tides. A teaspoon to 2 tablespoons per gallon is okay, and I try to get around the middle range of that - about 1 tablespoon per gallon.
You also want a screen top to keep the crabs from climbing your power cords and escaping.
