Halloween Hermit Crabs

[fernalfer]

I have 2 halloween hermit crabs that are in QT. Last night some how the plug to the power strip came out of the wall and my tank has not had filtration, heat, or anyway to make oxygen just a tank of sitting water. I noticed this about 5 hours later and turned everything back on. The tank temp got down to 68 degrees. But to my surprise the Hermit crabs are alive and still walking around. Do you think i've done damage and is there a chance they will survive?

Hi! I have 3 Halloween crabs .... ohhhh they are such characters!
If they are walking around and eating I would think they are ok

Yeah OK for now. Just hoping they don't start to go downhill because of that mishap. By the way do yours eat cyano at all?

Mine eats it when there's a little bit on the sandbed but won't touch the large sheets of it
