I was just thinking yesterday that I needed more vampire crab content to watch, and here it is

[mankyman__]

I love the crab videos and the music really set the vibe I can’t wait to set up my own tank

[MikeTytula]

Love your channel! I recently picked up a nice starphire glass tank for my first foray into Vampire crabs!😊

[Cow_Juice]

Ah there you are. I've been expecting you. Thank you for dropping another vid. 😁

[dazd]

You helped me a lot to build my own. I watch all your videos a few weeks ago.
I have (since last wednesday) 4 vampire crabs in a 60L Aquarium. One male and 3 females. They only come out at night, very shy for the moment.
thanks for sharing your knowledge, and sorry for my terrible english.

I’d love to make a paludarium one day and would definitely follow one of your videos as a guide. Thanks for the great content! Music sounds like its from a 90s video game to me but I have no idea what 😅
