- I quit making aquarium video. There will be no more aquarium related video in this channel. My new video will be like this:
• Video
This video is back here.
This video is about my crab tank setup. The crab in this video are red apple crab or metasesarma aubryi. They are land crab and so we need to provide land area here. This tank setup is like semi paludarium with plants and waterfall. The plants here are bucephalandra red catherine, bucephalandra crocodile, aridarum sp and moss, probably java moss.
The filter in this video is my DIY shallow tank filter. If you are intersted in making one yourself, here is the video on how to do that:

Thank you.

love the waterfall and attention to detail...
love the setup! great work. so want to the same thing. love the rocks!
I enjoyed watching this video. Thank you for sharing!
Great crab tank 👍🏻
These little guys are so cute!!!!!!
Indeed they are and so evil.
Beautiful!
cool tank
Akhirnya yang ditunggu... 👍👍👍
These crabs are so wavy
That's dope!!!!
Крутяк👍 У меня тоже есть два краба)))
nonton channel lu jadi keinget sama foo flowerhorn bang, btw nice video!
Thank you for quitting. this is the right decision.
I really like this.
Your builds look good and you are a brilliant scaper. But you do not know anything about the animals, making you a bad role model.
The tank is too small at all for this kind of animal. These crabs have no way of digging. But they usually live in small, self-dug burrows.
Here they cannot pursue this urge.
Plus they will probably eat the silicone and die.
There is also no bowl with minerals or salt water. This is especially important for mating since most crabs are mangrove animals.
As I said, no offense meant. However, as an influencer, you have a responsibility and have not yet fulfilled this role.
I'm pleased about your change. I really respect that.
You will definitely have more success in your other projects.
I wish you the very best.
I think you are confusing them with another species. Red apple crab isn't brackish water crab. Don't keep them in brackish water. They do migrate to the sea each year to spawn, but they live in land full of fresh water. No recorded success of breeding in captivity.
They do burrowing to molt, but never stay in their burrow. They are migrating species, so yeah, you may be right on the tank size, but no one can provide an entire island to keep these crabs at home.
They won't eat silicone. They are not that strong to break cured silicone. Also, they can even distingush edible and non edible plants. I don't see any possibility that they will eat silicone.
I would say not all crab need the same requirement. It's better to judge something like this based on the specific species of the crab. Ie, keeping vampire crab in brackish water is cruel for them since they are fully fresh water species.

I really do not have a bad meaning. It just seems, that there is a lot of knowledge missing.
All I said is, that they need saltwater to breed and to stay healthy.
A group of 3-5 Crabs needs at least a 60-90x90-60cm tank. that is the minimum.
They try to cut silicone normally if they can reach it. because they will try to eat everything and silicone tastes lightly sweet.
Of course, not all crabs need the same requirement. That's right.
I owned over 1300 different animals in my Store and they all need different things to stay healthy.
Because of that it is very important to know the needs of every animal very well.
To be very clear. Nobody said they had to be kept in salt water. All they need is a small dish (a bottle cap, a puddle, etc.) with salt water in addition to their freshwater pool to meet their needs and release the larvae.
Very Nice bro Nice set up 👌👌
Great scape. Might do something similar for my current tank. Does anyone know the type of rocks! This looks so so cool.
love it
Good looking set up
Thanks :)
I think I'll keep it in this channel and begin to fix this channel instead of making another. Afterall, I made this channel for planted tank 🙏
@@CoretanIjo Better bro. I really loved this one, I am sure others would have too. Keep going :)
@@vino92838 Thank you. I appreciate your support bro.
How long do these red claw crab breed live in freshwater?
Yo tonton meneh. 😅
Mazzeh inpone ati ati tanamannya dimakan
Iyo mas, mossnya botak sekarang tapi kalau buce sama aridarum engga doyan kayaknya.
@@CoretanIjo ok mazze
Tanemanya kuat berapa minggu gan..?
Perawatan tanemanya butuh pupuk cair dsb... atau gimana...? Trima kasih
I have an empty jewel rio 180 since we got new 300L tank. can i use the 180L tank to hold crabs? I thought of filling like 25% with water and rocks and then 75% sand since i read crabs mainly go on the land.
180 L will be great for crabs. That's right, land crab spend most of the time on land.
What type of filter did you use?
Anyone know what kind of rock he use?
buat aquarium kura2 yg ada ikan om
elefant skin stone
Thank you. For years, I don't know what rocks are they. Thank you very much.
Amazing...most beautiful crab tank I have seen...so you just set the filter in? I always thought you had to do more to it.
In this video, I did cycle the tank, but it's not necessary for crab. They don't breathe under water.
He is just me *dont know anything but still uses it and it work outs. 🗿🤣
😅
if they breed, how do you keep that under control?
They are cannibal. They'll control their own population.
They won't breed in fresh water,, these actually live in more of a brackish water environment, and even then a seperate birthing tank is required so mom and pop can be removed after the fry are dropped,, and the little fry will cannibalize it's frymates, the strong survive.
9/10 they won’t breed in captivity and if it does happen unless you separate before she lays her eggs they will be eaten :) !
They can't breed in this environment. Unfortunately it is not a suitable habitat.
I have thes crabsin a fish tank they haven’t ever touched air
That'll depend on the crab species. Some live underwater and can breathe under water, some are land animals and can't breathe under water.
is this 5 gallon or 10?
With the rocks it makes it too heavy, can you replace the rocks with something lighter?
I don't know.
Hello thank you for your video but can you give me the name of the rocks thank you very much
I don't know the rock name.
Ok thank you
looks neat, but these animals like to dig in Soil...
How do you know the styrofoam and glue, rocks, and plastics will not make those living there sick? Are they marked as safe for water features and sea creatures? Beautiful crab! Gorgeous! I love the distant yellow eyes! Unique!
There's no mark about that. Just rely on your knowledge. That being said, I can only tell about freshwater.
For styrofoam, only use plain styrofoam. The fire retardant agent may harm animals.
Don't use any plastic marked as 'biodegradable'. That's low quality plastic.
Most rock or stone are safe. Don't worry about it.
Cyanoacrylate and anything else for plumbing are safe once cured.
@@CoretanIjo Thanks for your time & help!
it is not safe. The crabs will eat it and die.
Also, the tank is not suitable for these crabs at all.
For the water, it is not toxic if you pick the right silicone and the right styrophor.
I have fiddler crabs and sometimes I find them dead on the floor
They like adventure, too bad, they can't handle drying.
Pake air paip boleh ga ?
Do they need out of the water areas? Or can they just live in a normal tank?
They need land area.
@@CoretanIjo will they die without?
@@LiamADHD Yes, they can't breathe under water.
How do you keep it from smelling. I created one also...and it smells like something is dead, but all crabs are accounted for. I water change each week.
Hi, mine usually smell the earthy smell. Like the smell of earth after the first rain. It feels refreshing, but if you don't like the smell or it doesn't smell like that, activated carbon can help.
@AisVivarium I have carbon in the filter, can I mix it in with the substrate too?
@@sbod1965 yes, you can. Carbon is safe, but if you use white substrate. They may become unsighty, alternatively, you can use zeolite with white substrate.
@@CoretanIjo thank you 😊
@@sbod1965 no problem.
Are vampire crabs anything like the Red Clawed Crab? I have a Red Clawed Crab with like 20% land and 80 water. Can a canopied crab survive in it ? Also will it fight with my Red Clawed Crab?
Red claw crab is bigger than vampire crab. They'll end up kill and eat the vampire crab if you keep them together.
It's depend the tank size. I mean, 20% land area in a bigger tank may enough to keep them. The rule 'more land than water' is for small tank.
@@CoretanIjo it’s a 35 gal tank . So you think they will find each other and still kill each other ?
@@321353096 Unfortunately, your red claw crab will kill the vampire crab not only because of territory. They are also consider the vampire crab as food. So regardless tank size, the red claw crab will kill the vampire crab.
The tank size is just to determine the water to land ratio. 20% land ratio in 35 gal should be enough to keep small crab species.
@@CoretanIjo my crab has been okay with a few rock shrimps, maybe because ether are fast . If I put the vampire crab with some rock shrimps, are they okay ? Or is it food for them
@@321353096 Crab is opportunist predator. They don't hunt their food actively, but if their food happen to be within their reach, they'll eat them.
Borneo? Abang dari indonesia?
Can they molt above ground?
yes, they can.
di semarang kalau beli akrilik lembaran gitu dimana om ?
Saya beli di Noud shop, merchant di tokoijo.
We need part 2
I want to make part 1001, but my channel situation was very terrible (it's still is terrible). This was the part 2:
czcams.com/video/ZpdhAbPKXmQ/video.html
@@CoretanIjo nice video , man! i hope everything will come clean . keep it up with the crab content cause i personally love it. CZcams might be weird sometimes.
@@settingtea6653 I have plan to upgrade my crab tank next month. I got some precious feedback about these crab habit and suitable habitat, so I'll change their tank to suit what they need.
are they saltwater or freshwater crabs?
They are fresh water crab.
Can we use this for fiddler crab???
Fiddler crab will need sand on the land area. They need to hide under the sand when molting.
Can we use this for apple crab???? Please reply
@@mohammedsaad3827 Yes, the crab in this video is red apple crab.
Thank you for your response. 🎉
And do I need to add a heater?
@@mohammedsaad3827 They can thrive at 22 to 32° C. If your room temperature is lower than that, you should use heater.
Is it hard to keep young crabs?
Crab juvenile, not so hard. Baby crab, yeah. They can die without any apparent reason.
@@CoretanIjo dude they're land crabs. you're using the wrong setup
@@r.graves4123 since you are so insisting, please cite your sources. Is there any evidence of your statement or perhaps study publication?
Ada kepiting yg full air ga???
Ada tapi butuh tank gede.
@@CoretanIjo lah itu kepiting konsumsi, yg saya pengen yg hias, kalau yg gede lbh enak digoreng drpd diliatin🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lha iya, yg hias. Namanya panther crab, dari sulawesi.
@@CoretanIjo oh saya kira yg gede" kaya yg dikonsumsi😂😂😂
Bukanlah, kalau konsumsi kepiting bakau atau rajungan.
What type of crab is that
red apple crab
Ad small fishies in that tank
That's a bad idea
Apik rek yuyune
Yuk, pelihara yuyu. Anti Tuyul System 😅
Klo sekiranya aquarium full air gitu masih hidup gk?
Ga bisa, ini kepiting darat. Cari yg kepiting dari sulawesi, panther crab kalau ga salah. Itu full air.
@@CoretanIjo ok makasih
Where are you from bro?
Indonesian?
yes, Indonesia
Apa nama kepitingnya
ada di video.
these crabs (metasesarma aubryi) are LAND-crabs which don't really like or even avoid (!) water. they only need a small and flat waterbowl to wash their breathing organs and for molting. please keep them in a moist substrate (cocosfiber+earth+sand mixture) get some springtails in there and some hiding hardscape like stones, roots and moss. they will thank you.
Can you please cite your source?
@@CoretanIjo german sources: the book "Vampirkrabben" by M. Höhle & Dr. M. Singheiser; The Book "Krabbenfibel" by M. Rademacher & O. Mengedoht (and the Panzerwelte.de Board, which is a great Database for Informations about keeping Crustaceans
@@r.graves4123 I don't understand german, but vampirkrabben sounds like vampire crab which is entirely different species.
@@CoretanIjo thats true. the book is mostly about vampire crabs (geosesarma) but it also has topics about other species like metasesarma and lepidothelphusa.
@@r.graves4123 Well, the problem is about the language. I trully don't understand german language.
Apa kepitingnya bisa dimakan
tidak
Keeping crab as pet can be exciting, but it can also be annoying like the story in this part 2 video here:
czcams.com/video/ZpdhAbPKXmQ/video.html
That video is set to private
What happened in the video?
Alright, I put the video public again.
@@CoretanIjo thank you!
Di upload meneh to pak?
Iyo pak, lha mau langsung diserbu bot ngono. Yo tak delete. Upload maneh normal maneh. Mugo2 wae bot e ilang.
Great video but normally people want to hear you speak about your tank setup and why and what you feed them, literally general interest type stuff
My house is near a big road. The noise is 24/7 non stop and can't be cancelled even by expensive mic. If I'm forcing it and reduce the noise post production, my voice isn't even understandable anymore. I guess, everyone has their own problem. I just try the best to overcome it and this was woking very well before any face revealing channel take our content.
I liked the quiet. Very peaceful
I like it how it is. Very calming.
You sir are awesome!
Nope. These crabs need a burrowing substrate. You can't keep them on solid rocks only if you want them to live good lives.
Crab is cool🫵🗿
🦀🦀🦀
makananny ap
Nanti ada waktunya update sendiri buat lebih detail tapi mereka makan segalanya. Di video pun mereka makan moss dan keong.
Naaaaah the glass will get foggy
That's a good excuse to get another tank 😁
@@CoretanIjo ahahahahahah damn u right 💡
@@mustafamufasa5002 😂🤣😂
Om ada nomor wa ? Mau tanya" lebih banyak 🙏
Nanya di sini saja, banyak ga masalah.
@@CoretanIjo mau tanya tentang yg udang Sule om, 🙏
1. Untuk parameter air PH , saya dapat info apakah aman menggunakan karang jahe atau aragonite sand ?
2. Mineral DIY menggunakan cangkang telur ayam, apakah bisa ?
3. Untuk bakteri starter apakah bisa pakai apa saja ,?
Maaf om nanya nya disini 🙏
@@daniardian5301 No 1-2 Kalau niatnya main parameter air, jangan pakai bahan alami. Sekalian pakai bahan kimia. CaCl2, MgCl2/MgSO4, KSO4 buat GH. Baking soda buat KH. Bahan alami ga bisa diprediksi.
3. Saya ndak pernah pakai bakteri starter.
Tanemanya kuat berapa minggu gan..?
Perawatan tanemanya butuh pupuk cair dsb... atau gimana...? Trima kasih
Tanaman kuat selamanya tergantung dimakan kepiting atau engga. Ga perlu perawatan ekstra. Fokus aja melihara kepiting.
@@CoretanIjo itu mos ama buce ya..?
iya
