fiddler crab is not fully aquatic and needs area to perch out of water to breathe and rest or else it iwll get stressed and die.

Is there a true full aquatic FW crab?? I thought all of them need a place to get out of the water

 

[cichlidhater599]

how large of a land area does it need?

A piece of driftwood suspended so that it was out of the water would work. But it needs a place to be out of the water for a bit on some sort of perch.

Also needs way to get up to said perch too so keep that in mind.

all crabs need to breathe air and a way to get up the that air

 

[soulpatch]

Some only need to get up to get air though and do not need full on perchs set aside for them.

Crayfish they r closes you will get. But you could take a log n make it stick out off the water enough for you to keep some. Inverts OWN!

I have planted bamboo that is 18" and my crabs (Patriots) have been in there for 4 months without issue. They are cool.
Oh and btw Bamboo does very well in the aquarium if the leaves extend out of the water.
