Hermit crabs! Eat anything, bath once a week, keep them moist, buy a range of shells for them to change.

2 ft for 3 hermit crabs is ABIT crammed IMHO., each crabbie needs a 1 sq ft of space and be sure to add pots and items they can craw under and hide.

Fighting fishes or Siamese bettas. If you intend to keep more than one, make sure they are female. Male betta will fight with each others. They are very colourful and many different colour to choose from.

Congrats!!!:thumb2:
Read somewhere that it is NOT good to 'bath' them .. it stresses them. Just have a dish with enough h2o for them to walk in themselves .

happy crabbing
