1, feeding equipment: the feeding tank is made of glass box, and the bottom is covered with a layer of bottom sand, which is about 2-3 times the height of the hermit crab. At the same time, a proper amount of new shells of different sizes are placed in the tank for the hermit crab to change their shells. 2. Feeding: Feeding after 10 in the evening. The food can be rice, bread crumbs, vegetables, fruits, fish feed, corn, corn, etc. 3. Management: Control the temperature at about 20-30℃ and the humidity at about 60-80%.

First, how to raise hermit crabs

1, feeding utensils

(1) glass boxes or plastic boxes are generally selected for feeding tanks.

(2) The bottom of the feeding tank is covered with a layer of bottom sand, the thickness of which is about 2-3 times the height of the hermit crab (at least 5-7cm), and the roughness of the bottom sand is about 2-3 mm..

(3) Put a proper amount of new shells with different sizes in the feeding tank for the hermit crabs to change their shells.

(4) Various recreational facilities such as rhododendron roots, coral stones, sea urchins, cactus bones and the like need to be arranged in the feeding tank, and at the same time, a reptile house or a coconut house needs to be arranged for hermit crabs to play, rest and hide.

(5) Put two basins in the feeding tank, one for fresh water (drinking) and the other for seawater (soaking).

2. Feeding

(1) Hermit crabs are nocturnal animals, and it is generally appropriate to feed them after 10 in the evening.

(2) You can choose rice, bread crumbs, vegetables, fruits, fish feed, corn, corn and other foods to feed. After molting, feed foods with high calcium and protein content, such as fish, eggshells and cooked shrimps (with shells).

(3) It is not advisable to feed onions, spicy food, oily food, sugar and vegetables containing pesticides.

(4) Choose mineral water, distilled water and cold boiled water for drinking water, and tap water is not suitable.

3. Management

(1) Before feeding, it is necessary to soak in warm salt water 1-2 minutes to remove parasites and lice.

(2) When cleaning the feeding cylinder, detergents such as detergent and lye should not be selected.

(3) The frequency of cleaning is frequent in summer, but it can be cleaned every 2-3 months in winter.

(4) The temperature should be controlled at about 20-30℃ and the humidity should be controlled at about 60-80% (water with calcium salt can be sprayed for 2-3 times).

Second, what is the relationship between hermit crabs and anemones?

1, hermit crabs are related to echinoderms such as anemones and polyps.

2. Anemone can get hard substrate from the shell of hermit crab, and it can also get debris when hermit crab is foraging. At the same time, the jellyfish can provide some protection for hermit crab.

3. Hydrozoa can get debris when hermit crabs are foraging, and can avoid being submerged by sediment. When hermit crabs gather together, they can promote the sexual reproduction of Hydrozoa. For hermit crabs, Hydrozoa can not only protect them, but also effectively prevent other large harmful appendages from forming settlements on their shells.
