Crab tank?

[AngryMike2016]

I have a 10 gallon tank laying around, and some spare rock & sand. I've been toying with the idea of doing a crab-only tank. Anybody ever done something like that?

Never seen one but could be cool. The only thing is a lot of them tend to hide in daylight hours.

I had a 2.5 gallon set up for a bad crab that I had to evict from my 12 gallon long.

I work a lot of nights from home, so that part wouldn't be a problem

I'm pricing out the components for this. Should be pretty cheap, and if it is, I may just do it. Sand, rock, maybe one of those silly little fish caves you see in freshwater, and that should do it.

I set a 10 gallon up as a brackish tank for a couple fiddler crabs, I hardly ever see them

nope. i think it was a stone crab.......came in as a hitchhiker. It committed some murders after gaining some size. He came to a bad end though.
