Care Guide
Tank setup: Give them a mature, planted tank with rocks and hiding places, and keep a lid on the tank.
Feeding: Micro crabs pick tiny bits of food from plants and moss. In a mature tank they find much of their own food; also offer a little crushed flake or powdered food.
Tankmates: Micro crabs are tiny and very peaceful. Keep them with shrimp, snails and small, gentle fish that won't eat them.
Good to know: These are among the smallest crabs in the hobby. They are fully aquatic and spend most of their time hiding in moss and plant roots.
