Hello, i am new to this, this is the first crab im going to get after my actual first grab i got during covid where people would sell alive crabs on supermarkets died from drowning, i need help
I read that vampire crabs are one of the worst crabs to create if you're a beginner, but i still would like them as they're my favorite crab species ever since i laid eyes upon them, im specifically going to get the Geosesarma dennerle (I hope i spelt that right) i just got my 55l paludarium, I am quite clueless on what I need to put inside since Its quite a mess and there's not a guide that aids me and it scrambles up my brain seeing all it needs of decor especially since different sources say different things, I was originally gonna get 1 male since im quite a fan of their aggressive behavior, but I read they grow a bunch of stress after a bit of their solitude so im also going to be getting 2 females which I hope is a good decision, if just one female is best please tell me, I read that their mating can become quite gruesome so I should watch up on it, not sure if thats true but if it is I'll be standing guard to make sure, what are the signs that they're gaining interest and want to mate? That would be quite helpful, thank you all
Little fun facts about my supermarket crab that have nothing to do with my questionary: I had no aquarium, so it just walked around my house, lil dude's favorite spot was the corner of my bed and the bath tub, he would hide under the wardrobe at times and would always sleep next to me, and then sometimes there would be moments it pinched me, I didnt really know what it ate so my mother just told me to give it some seafood delights (which I found out later that...its literally made out of crab, i literally attempted cannibalism without realizing it) and occasionally fed it apples, I filled a container with water and let him hang around there, then when I found him he had drowned, I miss my crab, his name was uh..it was quite literally over 786 ancient names like Maxillius III and that sort mixed all together, although for the extremely short version he was just Bartholomew the III, I had to spend 2 hours writing his name in a notepad to show it to people, phone is lost so now I forgot his 786 names name lol, anyways thank you guys for reading it really means alot
