    I instituted something similar in my most recent tank. Multiple layers of clay and porous rock substrates beneath and above the soil, with a sand top layer. I specifically used crushed brick, as it's terra cotta based and even higher in iron, more thoroughly baked in order to reduce breakdown over time, and naturally porous moreso than other options to foster more bacteria. I believe it will last a very, very long time.

    Great video. Thanks for sharing. I agree with you. Mulm is inert once it is biologically broken down and does not harm the fish in any way. Also since I was a kid I have always kept water in buckets to gas off for a week or so before using it in my tanks and had never used dechlorinators and never had fish dying due to chlorine.

    @truthhunter2139 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I know this video is very old, but I have to point out that this information is incorrect. I have kept these crabs for many years in both fresh and brackish set-ups and they live just as long and are just as healthy in fresh water as in brackish. You have their breeding pattern backwards aswell, they spend the majority of their lives in fresh water and migrate to brackish water to release their eggs. It is their young that require brackish water to mature, after which they too will head back to fresh water until they themselves reproduce. You are correct about them not being fully aquatic though, it is essential they have access to land. A floating "turtle dock" will suffice for 1 or 2 crabs in a pinch (no pun), but ideally they do need plenty of land to explore, and they will definitely need more than a dock if you have more than 3 in a tank. One more note: Males are extremely territorial, so only 1 male per tank. Otherwise the bigger one will 100% definitely hunt the smaller one until it kills it and if they are evenly matched they will rip each others limbs off. I hope this updated info is useful to someone.👍

    • @truthhunter2139
      @truthhunter2139 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi, just letting you know, this information is not 100% correct. I have kept these crabs for many years in both fresh and brackish setups, and they're perfectly fine in fresh water and will live just as long in it. They live in fresh water in the wild and only migrate to brackish water to release their eggs, as it is their young that require brackish conditions to mature. After which they will also return to fresh water until they themselves reproduce and the process repeats. So unless your customer is planning on breeding them (which is almost impossible in captivity), they're fine in freshwater. They are semi-terrestrial and do require access to land though, that part is correct. A floating island will do for 1 or 2 crabs, but if possible, the more land they have the better and any more than 2 will definitely need more land to avoid hostility. It is also very important that you only sell your customers 1 male per setup, as they are extremely territorial and will fight to the death otherwise. I hope that is helpful.

    Hi I recently just got two red claw crabs. Have you had any success housing them with larger snails? I've seen people on both sides about it. I've been trying to do more research since PetSmart didn't even tell me they needed to be in brackish water and recommended some pellet food for them. I would like to get at least two Molly's and possibly some snails if they can all get along

      I would also like to know. Im also interested in using cat litter as a layer under my sand. Martons is bentonite but they don't say if it is baked or not and I wonder if it will go mushy or stay hard. The only other brand I could find in South African stores is Lopis but they don't say clay or baked on the bag. The only other cat litter are the crystal types.
