| 12 February 2025: Due to family commitments and work, I have been unable to update this website and realise it is long overdue for an update. I will start updating the different pages as an overhaul after a long decade hiatus, especially considering how its focus and niche on the Internet will change. |

| In addition to English, I can also communicate in standard Chinese and Korean. Although I cannot promise I will have time to translate the entire website into Chinese and Korean eventually, I am happy to assist you in Chinese or Korean if you leave a message in the Forums. |

Dormancy |
|---|
Why is my hermit crab being dormant on the surface? Assuming that you have no problems with temperature, humidity, bedding and nutrition, hermit crabs may become dormant due to PPS, moulting, injury or illness. Do not disturb hermit crabs that have been buried for less than three months. |
What should I do with a dormant hermit crab? Move the hermit crab to an isolation tank and place a hidey cave over them. Leave a small amount of fresh water, salt water and food in the isolation tank. Keep the hermit crab warm and humid and avoid disturbing it. The hermit crab may proceed to moult after a few days or weeks. If your hermit crab has lost its claws due to an injury, you will need to hand-feed it daily. See Lost Limbs for more information. |
