I didn't see your previous thread so I'm not sure what questions were answered, and I'm no good at the different species, but here's what I know (from selling them in a pet store). - Take a 10 gallon tank (5 gallon is fine if you just want one or two), on half of the bottom of the tank put sand (the kind for reptiles, about $10 a bag), and on the other half, put wood chips/mulch. Bury two dishes in the bottom, so that the crabs can get into them without climbing over the ledge. One should have food, the other should have pebbles in the bottom, with a sponge on top. Keep the water level in the dish with the sponge below the sponge, because hermit crabs drown easily. They just need to be kept warm and have light during the day. They also like to climb, so a fake plant or two works well. Keep the sand part wet, and the sponge wet. Good luck~
