Use a moisture-retaining substrate like coconut fibre on the land portion. Add live moss, leaf litter, and hiding spots using cork bark and coconut hides. Maintain humidity at 75-85% and temperature at 22-28°C. A secure lid is essential — these crabs are skilled escape artists.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eFeeding Guide\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese omnivorous crabs eat a wide variety of foods: crushed fish pellets, freeze-dried bloodworms, blanched vegetables, small fruit pieces, and leaf litter. Supplement with cuttlebone for calcium to support healthy shell development.
