Question Dear Kristy,
I thank you so much for giving me the advice for my crab.I will try every thing.I only have two questions.How long i should keep a light on the cage, and if i put a dish of water in there do i set the crab in it?Okay i have one more question.If I put a dish in there what if my other crabs get in there and drown?

AnswerYou can leave the light on for a few hours a day, 5 or 6, that way the sand gets warmed up to stay warm for a while but it won't dry the tank out too bad, after you turn the light off you can spray the tank a little bit too. You don't have to sit the crabs in there, as they move around, they will find it, but for the one that won't move, I would put him right beside it, because he may drown before he get's the idea that he needs to get out. As for drowning, you can just put a rough rock in the bowl that sticks out of the water a little bit, that way if they crab can't get out of the bowl, he can climb up the rock out of the water and then climb out of the bowl from the top of the rock.
