Order them some tasty (healthy!) food on line from someone like Keep on Crabbin' or Hermit Crab Addiction!
Do they have plenty of hideys? Maybe a coconut husk climbing wall, or some cork bark (tasty healthy treat that's also a tank decor and climbing toy!).
Maybe a bubbler pool?
I think I'd splurge on some Carib-Sea aragonite sand, since it can be pretty pricey, and it's always nice to have clean sand to swap out instead of having to clean and bake before you can put your crabs back in the tank. :)

Hmm maybe even some things to make deep cleaning easier, like a small dustpan for scooping substrate out of the bottom. :)
