Red Thai Crab

[LotusChan]

Hello im new here nice to meet everyone.

 

 

 
I was at my Favorite Pet Store in Town and they just got a order in and have a Red Thai Crab.
He is Large and Aggressive and I Love it I have wanted to do a Brackish Water set up For a while.
I originally had a ReedFish (ropefish- named LUKE-) im my tank but i sold him as my tank was to small for him after 1 year.
I now have a empty 29 gallon tank with nothing inside. I would like to make it into a Thai Crab Tank.
If I can having more than one when i get it right if im able too.
 
I'm would like direct Instructions on how to make my tank perfect for him and am prepared to work to get it right.
 
Please and Thank-you.

Hi LotusChan 
 
Sound fun with an aggressive crab. Unfortunately I don't have any experience with crabs. Hope some one else does
 
Regards

I had a pair for a full year without having land area. I did have floating plants though. No lighting, just natural indirect lighting and an air pump was good for them without drowning them in my 6" deep water. They both fed on my dead feeder guppies as i normally have like 2-3 dead fishes daily.
