Heres a pic of my brackish water tank. I currently have four fiddler crabs and two fish inside. The fiddler in the air bowl has mated with one of my male fiddler crabs and is making and preparing for the eggs.:fish:

I'm trying to set the bowl idea up as we speak, simply spectacular! Now to find out how to do it for the 20 fiddlers I have coming in for my 75.


Again great idea!!!

How often do you change the air?

An airstone inside the bowl will keep the air fresh.thumbs2:

I know it's an old thread, but I wanted to know :ssmile:I have an air stone inside the airbowl, so the air is trapped inside the air bowl. the bubbles also pop inside the airbowl.

love the bowl, but I have one question, How does the air in it not spoil? I mean if the crab is breathing in it wouldnt the CO2 levels get too high? O rmaybe you could do an air change:hmm3grin2orange:

I have a air stone inside the bowl that keeps the air fresh by trapping the bubbles inside, the bubbles pop inside the airbowl giving it air. I have a air pump controll that doesn't let the airstone inside the bowl overload with bubbles.
