Top 10 FAQs of Hermit Crab Lagoon
What is the Hermit Crab Lagoon used for?
It’s a mini water pool used for drinking, soaking, and maintaining proper humidity in your crab’s habitat.
Can I use it for both freshwater and saltwater?
Yes! Set up two lagoons one for each type for optimal hydration and shell care.
Is the lagoon deep enough for soaking?
Yes, it’s shallow enough for safety but deep enough to let hermit crabs submerge and soak when needed.
Is it safe for baby hermit crabs?
Absolutely. The gradual slope design helps prevent drowning, making it suitable for all sizes.
What material is it made of?
It's made from durable, non-toxic plastic designed to be crab-safe and easy to clean.
How often should I clean the lagoon?
Clean and refill it with dechlorinated water every 1–2 days to prevent bacteria buildup.
Do I need to add a sponge or ramp?
It’s optional. While the lagoon is shallow, adding a sponge or smooth rock can help smaller crabs climb in and out easily.
Can this be used with heat-treated water?
Yes, just ensure the water is cooled to room temperature before adding it to the lagoon.
How many lagoons do I need?
Ideally, one for fresh and one for saltwater to meet all hydration and mineral needs.
Does this help with molting?
Yes. Access to water supports hydration, which is essential for a successful molt.
