    Setting Up The Aquarium

    The first thing to do is to buy your aquarium. A ten gallon aquarium will house four medium size 1-2 inch) fiddler crabs with sufficient space to prevent aggression. Prepare a sloping sand area for the crabs to bury themselves. If you add brackish water fish to this habitat you will want a larger aquarium. Fish such as platies, mollies, guppies and swordtails as well as ghost shrimp will adapt to moderate salinity. Set up some type of bubblier aeration system to oxygenate the water.

    Water Quality

    I prepare a brackish water solution by adding two and one-half teaspoons full of sea or aquarium salt to one gallon of water. If you have a hygrometer, attempt to reach a specific gravity reading of 1.01-1.08. Let the water sit overnight so that chlorine and chloramines dissipate. I change the water every two weeks but you can add at biowheel ammonia and nitrate removal system so you do not have to change the water.
