3 Gallon

OK, Like in the PM's I sent you on TPF, I just go some more questions.
Crabs: The crabs at the beach are like this http://farm2.static.flickr.com/1362/1380467992_0cca46e3ff.jpg?v=0
If I do the 3 gallon setup would I need to have space for them to go on the sand to get air?
Hermit crabs: The ones at my beach are relative to this http://www.dougcoutts.com/CostaRica/HermitCrab.Web.1710.JPG
How many can I keep in there?
Snails: The snails at the beach are like this http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3227/2781160096_18f524220a.jpg?v=0
Are those good?
Rocks:The rocks are more like rocks, not ocean live rock. Should I get lace rock at LFS and just put it in the tank? Or rubble rock from LFS?


Thanks

The crab looks like a ghost crab. They get about two inches. I would really only keep one full sized crab in a tank this small. Those snails look like turbo snails but its hard to tell. The should be fine in there. I would go with 1 or 2 hermit crabs at max. Just because of the size of you tank i would go with the proposed stocking list because these are all carnivorous/omnivorous animals excluding the snail and they will most likely cannibalize each other or die from lack of food.

I would go with some rubble with a little bit of rock. That is because rock in temperate regions is most often made of granite or similar dense rocks.

Oh, Ok. The crabs are like spotted brown and camo, there really small, the bigest I saw them at was like 1.5 inches

Those may be common shore crabs. I mean anything thats small will be fine in that tank i would just gradually release some stuff the bigger they get.

Ok.

Cant wait to see pics .

Of an empty tank in my garage?
I have to wait till I get my 5 gallon under control then start with the ten or three.
I wanna do the cold water so bad now.

No of the stocked tank . Haha i know, starting a new tank is always fun.

Yea.LOL
Would a bumble be gobby be fine in the 3gallon? I seen them in fresh,brackish and salt.
and in super cold water.like in my 3gallon it was like at 68F

I am not sure but i would say no. Find some other type of small goby that you can fit in your tank.

Also make sure the animals you get have something to eat.

I will probably feed them sea weed wrappers are something

Thats good but i also mean like algae.

Yea I'll feed that to. Maybe the pellets?

I wouldnt go with pellets. Try to make their diet as natural as possible since they arent aquarium bred.

Oh. Ok

You left.
