Paludarium 54L - Journal

Sesarma bidens/Pseudosesarma moeshi (Red Clawed Mangrove Crab) was the main reason for commencing this project. Like many other crabs even this one needs access to land. I would like to keep a few of these crabs responsibly, meaning successfully. Happy crab-keeping! :-)

The final scape

I planted a few Cryptocorine x willisii and that should be it concerning the fauna. I also placed 3 more pieces of bog-wood, so they reach above the water surface, creating extra "land" for several Sesarma bidens crabs.
I am not sure will plants resist the crabs appetite but time will tell. I will feed the crabs with cucumber, carrots and apples. This should keep them away from the plants. I will also feed them with Hikari Crab sticks.
