our tank..

[kenn]

Here it is.
We have two parts in out habbitat.
1 part for digging, the other is the waterpart.

Comments are welcome.

It lokks good -
but there are missing some places where the crabs can`t be seen -
and the water part isn`t very easy for them to climb in an out - there will help some stones or parts of trees

Hi there kenn,

which crabs live in there?

[kenn]

Now: none.
First the tank has to be good.
Eventually: G quadratus.

Ok, so more hiding places (wood, and stuff) and some easier way to get in the water..

Thanks for thinking with me ;-)

hi! G quadratus are big crabs about 10cm and more of carapax !!! excuse me please, can you give some information about the size of your tank? and i think the digging place will be to small for them...

The animals that are coming are little ones.
So I don't think it's going to be a problem.

But here are the size:
60x50x50

Afterwards, they will have a tank of 100x50x50

Thanks for thinking with me

Hi Kenn,

yes, a 60 cm tank is too small for Gecarcinus – BUT of course some juveniles have plenty of space there. These crabs do not need a water part, but a dish with water – like in Your setup – is allright. Pfrereable would be some leaves, which you can collect in any wood nearby (not to near to a street or industrial complexes). The leaves of all Central European deciduous trees are possible, dead leaves best, green leaves are possible either.

Thanks.

Normally the animals would arrive next week..

I'll keep you posted!
