Hermit crab questions?

Question

I might get a few of the small sized hermit crabs and i have a couple of questions...

1. I know you need a sea sponge in the drinking water bowl but do you need a sponge in bathing water dish?

2. Do you really need a bathing regular water dish and a bathing salt water dish even if there are nutrients in the food?

3. My house is usually between 70-80 degrees is this fine for the crabs to live in room temperature without getting a heater.

Thats it thanks for the answers

Answer 1

hi i have since 2 yr 2 hermit crabs charlie and Alfred

1.  you only need one bowl with reg. drinking water with a sponge hermit crabs don`t need salt water really necessary and when you give them every 3 weeks a bath with only a little bit off water and only for one min let them walk in a safe place into there try that is enough.

keep your house between 78-83 degrees if possible

let me know if you have any other question
