Question

photo both343
my hermit crabs gone and my friend said they like peanut butter so i thought i'd put some out so when they eat it it will get on there claws so we can see where they go and it the second day we have been searching do you have any advice

Answer
That's good advice and thank you for sending the photo! Place the tuna or peanut butter in the center of some tin foil next to some dechlorinated ocean style salt water. Look for your crab around sources of water, like the bathroom and kitchen. Also if you have a cat, check the litter box. Good luck!
