Question
I have 3 hermit crabs that I got 2 weeks ago. One is always up durning the day and the other 2 are always up at night. how come?

Answer
Dear Caitlin,
thank you for your question.
Hermit crabs are not strictly nocturnal, especially in captivity. It's more or less a question of their personality and of the condition in the crab tank. Usually, crabs kept in tanks with a lot of hiding places and bright lighting tend to be active during the day or have phases of activity during both day and night.
I hope I was of some help to you
