Here's my hermit crab cage. Crabs are under that hut.

* 20 gallon tank that houses 3 hermit crabs.

Wow that's some impressive cage they're in! May I ask a dumb question? What exactly do you do with a hermit crab? (I mean do they come out and play or just stay in the cage.)

Did they eat you and that's why you're not answering our questions?

Is it true they're vain?

As a pet, sure, but in the environment, they're scavengers, meaning they'll eat about anything, so you could say that they clean the beaches.

You can let them crawl on your hand, but I don't. I've played with them some, but I view them just as you'd view fish, they're cool to have, but they're not man's best friend.

cool set up, do they need a heat lamp?

Nope.

How many shells do they get to choose from?

I used to have 3 shells for when I only had one hermit crab, but now since I have two more, I've put 4 more in there, so 6 shells in total. They switch a lot too.

what do you feed them?

Crab Island T-rex brand food. Combination of fruits and flowers.
