Do you have an ISO tank set up at all? Otherwise you could section him off in the normal tank...

[Mr.Crab]

no i dont have an iso. my mom is not going to let me spend the money to get another tank

how big is the crab? do you have a large plastic contain or bowl? try filling that with sand and sticking it in the tank. maybe he just needs to be alone and destress.

[Mr.Crab]

um... with him inside? no way. i dont have space in the tank, i dont have extra stuff, and im not a millionare

No one said you were a millionare, he was trying to help by making a suggestion. If you don't have the extra room maybe you can call around to your friends and see if they have something you can borrow to iso him until he destresses. You don't have to be a millionaire to use your brain and figure out what you can do. I had to do that until I could afford to get water dishes, I used my brain and thought of a free way to get water dishes. I ended up with actual reptile dishes but I had to use lids to my husbands containers until I could afford the dishes I just got yesterday. Give your friends a call and see if they have something you could borrow, I am sure your friends would love to help you if they can.

ahem i am a she. but yeah, i am sure you can find a cheap way to make an ISO.

*edit* if you are willing to spend some $, you can go to walmart and buy a 10 gal for $10 and use saran wrap for the lid and a pot (50 cents) for a hidey hut.

There's other ways to find free stuff too. Here's a few sites. Find your state and closest city.

Dollar stores, Craft stores, garage sales, thrift stores, tupper containers etc...
