I joined here because I would really love to get Hermit Crabs when I have the room and money for them and just want to learn everything I can about them before hand. I had a Hermit Crab as a kid but I got it from a mall kiosk with a little kk, a thin layer of sand, a couple of shells to put food and water in and a little tub of crab food :( . I want to do everything right this time so my next crabs can live good lifes.

Welcome! Take time and read through the crab care section and the forums - there's a TON of good information for you to look through before you get your new pets! I'm so glad that you're taking the time to learn before you get them!

Hi Fuzzy Bear, once you have made four posts on the forums you should be able to use the shout box. It's just a measure to ensure care-related questions are posted on the forums rather than in the shout box.
