vampire crabs are land crabs. they don't need lots of water. when I had them, I used water trays only. if u want water, 1/3 would be enough. I never measured any water parameters since I changed water 100% every week. I did put lots of coral chips to increase the hardness.
I m not sure shrimps but I'm quite sure the crabs will attack them. |

Gotta add more hiding spaces bro. And also more food perhaps? If i rmb, i had 4 or 5 in a 1.5 ft tank before, all survived well and happily, but this time i only want 5 or so .
