history

The arctic fiddler crab is native to the western Pacific. They are usually found on intertidal mudflats where rivers flow into the sea.

Breeding environment

Aquatic tanks with mudflat environments and deeper water are ideal. You can mix fine sand with dirt or soil as a base , and adding some sea salt to the water may help provide minerals to the crabs. Some fiddler crab keepers keep the crabs underwater , which we do not recommend.

Here are some settings we recommend:

diet

Fiddler crabs are omnivores. You can feed fine fish food, shrimp food, algae meal, blood worms, etc.

Molting <br data-mce-fragment="1"> Fiddler crabs will dig holes . Make sure the surface of the mudflat is wet so that there will be water under the crab holes. Fiddler crabs molt in their holes.
