2 Live Hermit Crabs Ship with Order, Starter Kit with Tank, Complete Bundle

The starter kit had everything needed to START a "crab-i-tat". If you intend to keep crabs, you will need to buy other stuff and a tank when possible, this is meant to be temporary. Reading past reviews, I was worried my crabs would show up dead or sick or die soon, so I ordered this and also extra crabs from the same buyer. ALL EIGHT CRABS ARRIVED ALIVE. Not sure if they are all still alive because they burrowed under deep sand my Husband had in the huge tank he bought, however one crab has come up and doing very well. Overnight tracks/holes indicate very active, multiple crab movement(we plan to get a night camera). It is NORMAL for crabs to burrow for up to 3weeks, so I'm sure others will pop up soon! Keep in mind that you are buying live pets ONLINE and they are being SHIPPED IN THE MAIL to you. And also that this is a temporary STARTER kit. Like I mentioned above, all EIGHT crabs ordered arrived alive and very active! If any died, it will/would be due to personal negligence/inexperience after arrival. The owner also included extra shells with each crab and one crab had a gorgeous pearl color shell! Very pleased, my Husband loved his gift!!!

thank -you so much I love them they are so lively. I just hope they get along with one another. I now have three in a 29-gallon fish tank and keeping my eye on temp and humidity. I just wished there was ocean salt water, I have well water here and I do have fish and don't need the tap water treatment. The two extra shells could have been bigger these are to small for the crabs I got. I will be using the tank I think for goldfish or some other kind of fish for my granddaughter. Thank-you again

This entire setup was a complete joke. For starters, it took a FULL WEEK to arrive. Sure enough, BOTH crabs were dead. In addition to receiving my dead crabs, their conditions were poor. One crab was missing a leg, the other crab had a big chip in his shell. The plastic enclosure is pretty small, it didn't include half the supplies necessary for a healthy environment. While the food shell dish looked fancy, it's sloped on a weird angle making it awkward to hold food and especially water. Nowhere near enough coconut fiber was provided, and overall the only thing that seems to be worth keeping were the molting shells. I'm more sad about the conditions of these poor crabs. It makes me wonder how many have died or arrived injured to other customers. Definitely a mistake. Will not be buying again.

One of my hermit crab is very active the other one is very lazy sleeping all day but I love my new pets for my son Update: the hermit crab that was not very active past away about 2 days after making this review it probably was sick but I did ordered two more hermit crabs so the other hermit crab will not be lonely and also please be careful holding them because that pinch do hurt

Great little terrarium for our hermit crabs. One of the top flaps broke off after a few months of use, but other than that it’s been good!

Ok, so I bought this april 8th 2018, and one of the hermit crabs is still alive and doing well today. (The other one died around the one year mark) This kit gives you everything you need (to start off)but you will need other stuff longterm, like after the one year mark, we got a 10 gal. Aquarium for him, since the old cage had a crack in it. But it's a really good product, like the crab is going on 2 years now and I bought this almost 2 years ago. Overall I feel for what your paying, is pretty good I highly reccomend

My crabs finally came after 11 days of being in the mail. They just came today and are alive. A couple broken off legs, but those will regrow during the molting stage. They loved their bath as soon as I got them so I definitely recommend that! Fingers crossed they live and are happy. I didn't like them being in the mail so long and being tossed around as there is no label of a live animal, but they made it.

The 2 Hermit Crabs that came with the kit were lethargic and inactive and only lived about a week. If the crabs DO live, the kit is actually too small, they need a bigger enclosure, and the substrate included is not enough to provide for the crabs' needs. At the time I purchased this kit, I also purchased a third individual hermit crab from this vendor. THAT crab is the only one that arrived lively and in good health. I still have him and bought 2 more from a local pet store to replace what died.. If you want to get Hermit Crabs, you're better off purchasing an extra large keeper or 10 gallon tank and buying/making your own substrate for them. Turns out Hermit Crabs require about 3" of substrate, this kit provided maybe a half inch. So I wound up buying a bigger keeper and supplies separately AND 2 replacement crabs for the ones who died shortly after arrival.
