Hermit crab under sand molting Very bad smell
My hermit crab mango buried himself in the sand a couple days ago. Now today my tank smells really bad with no explanation like a rotting fish .. what do I do ? I don't want to hurt mango if he's molting by digging him up but it's smells so bad I'm afraid he may be deceased !!! What do I do ???

Since the smell is very bad, I think it’s a good enough reason to check on Mango.
