Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crabbers should grab Philippe de Vosjoli manual on land hermit crabs for expert advice on keeping this popular and colorful invertebrate thriving in its vivarium! The popularity of hermit crabs is undeniable, as the author states in his introduction, "Their droll appearances and interesting behaviors have made them appealing to both children and adults looking for an affordable, low maintenance, and undemanding pet." Land Hermit Crabs seeks to inform dedicated hobbyists and casual crabbers alike about the requirements;minimal though specific;of land hermit crabs to keep their pets alive and healthy. Due to the low cost of hermit crabs, too many keepers carelessly allow their pets to die unnecessarily. The author says that the "high mortality of captive hermit crabs is [due to] the failure [of keepers] to provide a proper environment." This Advanced Vivarium Systems title provides detailed information on the selection of a health crab, housing, water and feeding requirements, molting, breeding, behavior, and health and other husbandry-related problems. Crab enthusiasts will also be interested to read about other crabs for freshwater aquaria in the final chapter, with photos of and information about fiddler crabs, red-clawed freshwater crabs, coconut crabs, and land crabs. Resources and index included.

Its body can measure up to 16 inches and its entire length (from leg to leg) can reach up to three feet and three inches wide. Coconut Crabs like eating coconuts - but that's not all. It can also climb coconut trees (and actually likes climbing this particular tree). A Coconut Crab can tear open a coconut with its strong claws. Stay away from those pincers! As land animals, Coconut Crabs have lungs instead of gills. While they started out as larvae and lived in the water for some time (they had gills back then) - an adult Coconut Crab is 100% a land-dweller. In fact, it can drown when left in the water for too long. Excited to learn more about the Coconut Crab? Get a copy of this book and discover more fascinating information about this animal.
