Our Mineral Supplement is made with three rare, valuable, important and extremely beneficial ingredients for Hermit Crabs. Green sand, Insect frass, and Pure Worm Castings are beneficial due to their rich sources of nutrients and minerals that support a hermit crabs growth and overall health. Green sand, which can only be sourced overseas, contains high levels of trace minerals such as iron, calcium, magnesium and many more. Nutrients like these are essential for a Hermit Crabs exoskeleton development and the overall functioning of their body system. Insect frass and worm castings are also nutrient-rich and provide a good source of potassium, calcium, nitrogen, phosphorus and many more. Additionally, these foods can aid in maintaining a healthy digestive system, increasing their resistance to stress/disease and promotes a overall balanced well-being in hermit crabs.

Hermit Crab Leaf Litter

 

Leaf Litter is such an important factor in a hermit crabs diet, we provide fresh, clean, cooked food along side with kelp, which is a nutritious replacement for greensand. Our hermies have been snacking on our leaf litter for months now and it's a must-have food in the tank at all times. We have the following inriching ingredients that help support a hermit crabs health overall:

We have ingredients like Kelp, Birch, Passionfruit leaves and many more. e.g.

Kelp: Kelp is a type of seaweed that is rich in essential minerals, such as iodine, calcium, and potassium. These minerals are beneficial for hermit crabs as they support healthy growth and moulting, improve their exoskeleton strength, and contribute to overall metabolic function.

These nutrients aid in strengthening the hermit crab's immune system and supporting healthy shell development.

Worm Castings: Worm castings, also known as vermicompost, are rich in beneficial microorganisms and nutrients like nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. These can enhance the soil's fertility in the enclosure, promoting the growth of live plants and enriching the hermit crab's diet through the consumption of beneficial microbes.

Chamomile: Chamomile has calming and anti-inflammatory properties, which can help reduce stress and promote relaxation in hermit crabs. Additionally, chamomile is known to have mild antibacterial effects, potentially supporting the crab's overall health.

Dried Mulberry Leaves/Passionfruit Leaves: Fruit leaves are rich in nutrients such as vitamins A, B1, and B2, as well as minerals like calcium and potassium. These nutrients support various bodily functions, including proper digestion and moulting.

Sphagnum Moss (Shaghum Moss): Sphagnum moss is known for its moisture-retaining properties, which can be beneficial in maintaining proper humidity levels in the hermit crab's habitat. Adequate humidity is essential for the crab's respiratory health and overall well-being.

Coconut Fibres: Coconut fibres serve as a natural substrate that helps maintain a suitable environment in the hermit crab's enclosure. They retain moisture well, support burrowing behaviour, and aid in shedding during moulting.

Rose Petals: Rose petals contain natural antioxidants that can contribute to the hermit crab's overall health by neutralizing harmful free radicals. Additionally, they provide some dietary fibre, which can support digestion.

____________________Worm Castings

 

Worm castings, also known as vermicast, are the excrement of earthworms. It is highly nutritious and can be beneficial for hermit crabs for several reasons. We sell our packets of Worm Casting in different sizes and often is said to keep in the crabitat at all times. Worm castings are rich in beneficial microorganisms that can aid in the breakdown of food and improve the overall health of the hermit crab's digestive system. This can lead to better absorption of nutrients, which can promote growth and overall health.

Worm castings contain high levels of organic matter and nutrients such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium, which is why it is usually known to help plant growth. Hermit crabs, as omnivores scavengers, can also benefit from these nutrients in their diet.

Water drops (water conditioner)

 

Another must-have in your hermie tank, specifically your water bowls/pools should have Water conditioner. Water conditioner is a vital component in hermit crab care because it serves several critical functions. First and foremost, it eliminates harmful chemicals like chlorine and chloramines found in tap water, ensuring the water is safe for hermit crabs to drink and bathe in. This is crucial because these chemicals can be toxic to them. Furthermore, water conditioner helps regulate the salinity of the water, particularly important for hermit crabs, as they require a specific saltwater environment to thrive. It also helps maintain the proper balance of essential minerals in the water, which is vital for their development and overall health. Water conditioners can have stress-reducing properties as well, which is beneficial for hermit crabs. Reducing stress promotes their well-being and minimizes the risk of health problems. Water conditioner for hermit crabs is essential for ensuring a safe, balanced, and stress-free aquatic environment, closely mimicking the conditions they would encounter in their natural habitat. This, in turn, contributes to their overall health and happiness in your hermie tank enclosure.__________________________
