  to the forums! It's unfortunate to hear about the baby crabs passing away, maybe you can find some information on the forums as to why they died? These forums have given me tons of useful information.

Breeding: In captivity, it is next to impossible to try breeding fiddler crabs in a normal setup. The zoea (zoea is the larvae stage of fiddler crabs) have a complex life. The zoea needs natural foods, natural occurring things like tidal waves and such. But if you provide the following things, you can breed them. You will need a large tank, like a 60–70 gallon (227.1–265.0 L) tank, natural foods like decayed plant matter, and plankton, and if you provide tidal waves and other natural things, and you need to mimic their natural environment, you could breed them. Fiddlers will mate in a normal setup, as long as the temperature and the environment is right. But the zoea won't survive in a normal setup.
