Red Claw Crabs

[dragons_shadow]

i just got 2 red claw crabs for my tank and every one seem to be
geting along just fine was just wondering if there is anything i need
to know about them as i've never had crabs in my tank before

RCCs are not fully aquatic, they need land as well as water, and they are not freshwater, they need brackish water. They are likely to try and eat your fish, as they are oppertunistic omnivores.

I suggest you return them until you set up a tank just for crabs.

You should really research things before you buy them, not after.
