Kiddo wants to put a freshwater crab in a community tank. My sense is it's not going to work, and I told her so, but I thought I'd just see if anyone has had success with a crab in a community tank. Tank is 20high and currently houses a betta sorority of 3, 2 Bolivians, 5 platies, 1 oto, and a dwarf frog. The dwarf frog I am certain would be well and done in no time with a crab in the tank. I'd also be concerned about the oto, and our bettas that love to snooze and relax near the bottom. All's peaceful in there right now. So, my head is telling me no way a crab is going in there, but my heart is saying just check into this one more time for kiddo. I also know that we're pretty much max stocked right now so the likelihood of us doing this is really slim but, again, just thought I'd check. Maybe some of you have some suggestions for housing a crab for us to consider for a later time. Is. Species only tank the way to go with crabs?
