due to plants I am getting rid of these (take good care of these, i would be heartbroken if one died).
these are the proper instructions to care for them.
a 10 g is perfect for 3
use gravel or sand for substrate (no pool filter sand)
brackish water ( 1 tablespoon of aquarium sea salt, or marine salt per gallon)
AIR ACCESS!!! most important they need about 3-9 inched of water, and plenty of land to breathe on, their gills must be moist!!!
food: plants, algae pellets, any fish food, any vegetabe (theyre scavengers)
ventilation must be well
change water every 2 months - 1 year (dirty water is fine, but i ilke to see them)
find the crab and put a peice of food in front of it that should last 3 days
small brackish fish are nice tank mates, NO PUFFERS (they eat them, even pea puffers)
Package is over night shipping
comes with: 7" peice of wood
9" peice of wood
filter (optional)
4" peice of wood
4" rock
2 red claw crabs 1 M 1 FM
and a bamboo cutting (unrooted)
FREE 7" piece of wood
I ask for about 12-20 dionaea muscipula 'Dentate'
or 32-46.00 depending if you want the filter too, it is for hald land half water, and is basically a waterfall.
if you want pics ill get them.
EDIT: if you want the 10g with vent lid add 12.00 to it, or add 5 'dentate'
if you want everything its gonna be like 65.00
or 25 DM 'Dentate'
