I wish I had an endless supply of these kinds of videos

Bro no wonder your crabs succeeded, look at that tank! A true habitat, you made a great & realistic environment for them to feel at home

"This crab has more determination than I do for anything I've done in my life." idk man looking at this tank alone, I have my DOUBTS heckin' amazing man

What a fantastic tank. Those vampires must have thought they had landed in crab heaven. No wonder they were happy to start a family!

I had an absolutely horrific experience with FedEx as well. My girlfriend and I were looking for a leopard gecko to take care of, and we found this beautiful morph we fell in love with. Delivery day came around and we were SO excited to meet our new child. We got a message that he was going to arrive at 9 am. We checked for hours - 9, 10, 11, 12, no package. It finally delivered at FIVE PM. We took in the package, and when I opened it, it felt unusually hot inside. We live in the desert, so it gets very hot out here, I didn't think too much into it. I was confused about a bag of hot liquid sitting in the box when I realized it was supposed to be an ice pack. I took out the gecko container - it was completely steamed up. I opened it and our new baby was upside down, fried. We were devastated. We called the breeder, he reached out to FedEx, and their excuse was "we were delayed because of Covid." We found out he had sat in their truck for HOURS. We were given no real apology, a stupid explanation, and they did absolutely nothing about it!! They were in charge of delivering a LIVE ANIMAL, and they leave it in a hot truck in the desert for hours!?! I start fuming thinking of FedEx, especially with how they handle their animals. Absolutely disgraceful

I really like this video because most other vampire crab set ups you see on KZfaq are just an aquarium with some mossy rocks poking out of the water or just a tank of substrate with one water dish. This is probably why your crabs are so successful as you provided a deep enough substrate and a filtered water area.

When it said “2 months later” I thought it would still be the crab playing tug o war with you and syringe 😂

I’ve never seen such a tank,absolutely fantastic.

I appreciate your effort to make ecosystems and inform us more on species that are misunderstood. Im inspired seeing your setup and how well everything is thriving. It's always refreshing to see something new in this hobby and executed gracefully. Im excited to be updated more on your observations and research in your beautiful paludarium!

That chilled out crab kicking back with a bargain bucket was freaky, only thing missing was a soda and of course the remote control!

This was such a good balance of accurate and thorough information, without being too bogged down. And entertaining without sacrificing the educational parts. Thanks for the content, I am subscribed for more. :D

I love this! Not only have you created an amazing environment for your plants and creatures to survive in, but you're also documenting such a rare occurrence. You sir are amazing

Humanity prospers because of people like you. Being so into such a unique niche thing is wonderful.

That set up is unreal. I swear it's like being in the corner at the aquarium of the city zoo. Very informative too. It's like David Attenborough had a protégé.👍

Can’t believe your documenting these crabs that we know so little about, crazy!!!

This is amazing! I’ve kept them 15 years ago, and severly lacked in my husbundary. I vouched to never get them again unless they are being bred in captivity. To see you have such succes with them warms my heart! Well done sir. You have a new subscriber!

I'm not going to lie that tank looks amazing. I would love to have a bigger tank like that

as someone in aquaculture and not much someone into crabs I find you being able to breed them in captivity a really good venture for you. Especially if you cant find anything about it.

They are incredibly cute!!! I love seeing them thriving and happy!

I love how you try new things but make it seem so effortless; and if there's an issue you swiftly seem to recover! Such as, young animals being preyed upon, cannibalism, etc. Plants damaged, whatever; you make it seem so chill!

The tank is absolutely stunning wow!

excited to see how the baby crabs do, I feel like an auntie

These videos are so exciting and inspiring. Your passion is infectious! I will probably never make one of these but I am interested in your journey. Please keep updating us!

That was super cool to see! You definitely enjoy what you do, your tank is absolutely beautiful. It’s no surprise to see the crabs breeding. Thank you for sharing ♥️

Congrats! I bred several generations of vampire crabs (orange carapace) in 30x30cm cube vivarium in an office, so they seems to breed easily like many of the geosesarma species. I think having a lot of springtails is key to reduce cannibalism.

Dude your setup is beyond amazing. Look at how much your little guys are thriving because of you!! Love this so much 🦀 💜👍🏽

They're so cute! You have such a beautiful home for them.

This is one of the coolest set ups I've seen. I love seeing the progress and how much has changed with each update!

This is so interesting! Beautifully filmed and super educational. Thanks!

I'm very inspired by this video. I never thought of owning a Paludarium before but the amount of animals you can put in one seems so much fun. I might have to build one someday :) Thank you so much for this video. Can't wait to watch your other ones!

Your narration is probably the best I heard. Honestly I only clicked to see the carbs for myself but after hearing you talk about them I stayed for the whole video.

It’s like a mini Amazon Rainforest in a tank. This video was a lot more exciting than I expected. Great job 👍

That was amazing the whole experience! Thank you for sharing that with us all and great work building your own ecosystem! That takes a lot of hard work and dedication

such a beautiful tank. I can tell you put your heart and soul into it

Such a sweet dedication this video reveals; the work, the beauty, the camera work. Just gorgeous.

This is the best video I’ve seen all year. Can’t wait to see your growth and the tanks as well.

That’s a beautiful setup for the crabs. Really well done. Look forward to more vids.

I clicked on this video due to the stunning plants and my nostalgia for a frog tank I had 25+ years ago, and I am amazed. That has to be the healthiest tank I've ever seen. Keep up the great work, and I look forward to watching your videos.

Thats so cool! I cannot imagine the tedious work that goes into this but im sure its extremely self rewarding! Looks amazing and calming.

So beautiful. This is the first time I've ever seen a vampire crap so amazingly set

Amazing, Great paludarium. I loved to see you building and develop this little wildlive further.

Absolutely stunning tank! Keep us posted!

How cool! Your tank is gorgeous and your dedication really shows.

Completely found this channel by accident in my midnight KZfaq adventures, im so glad i did, love your dedication and energy towards your passion and you genuinely make the video interesting while teaching me some cool things i never new! Definitely interested in starting a aquarium, Keep up the great work!

I just had to subscribe! Your setup is out of this world! And you actually care so much for each and every single one of your specimens, I'm just so grateful I've found you in a sea of cold hearted "experts"

The fact that the crab held on to the syringe for 2 while months is genuinely amazing 😳

Such a cool video and I learned a lot. Very beautiful tank and flora--very exotic. All the animals are so adorable and interesting. Thanks for posting!

WOW! SO COOL! Thank you for sharing all your information and beautiful tank. I can hear your passion for all of this. Beautiful tank, and you're obviously a great human 👍 😀

I’ve never been interested in anything like this before... This is so cool, I love it

Just stumbled across this video upload. I was actually impressed. Your tank was seriously out of this world and impressive to see. A thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining video. Thank you for sharing.

This is an unbelievably amazing set up, you definitely know your stuff!

I am so happy I found your channel! This video was interesting and adorable. I am so excited to watch the other videos on your channel. Thank you

Gorgeous tank, a living work of art.

I've never seen a tank like that in someone's house. Its beautiful. This is a great video. Thanks.

absolutely next level tank setup. this is sooo freakin cool !!

Just a beautiful tank, honestly one of the best! Thanks

You clearly has expertise, care, and dedication. Thank you so much for sharing it all with us!

This is really awesome, I’ve never seen a tank so well done

I can’t wait to see more of these crabs. Thank you for sharing.

How amazing to see baby crabs! You created the perfect environment for them to reproduce. I would be so proud! 🦀💜

That’s quite valuable information for the scientific community. I’m sure quite a few biologists would be interested in your crabs!

Amazing collection and really hard work and a lot of research, hats off for your information, sir

Dude this is so cool. Keep us updated with what you put next its super interesting

CONGRATULATIONS! THAT IS SO COOL! Those little crablets are SO CUTE!!

I am impressed by the gorgeous paludarium you created. You are more than a biologist. You are an artist!

This was very interesting! The crabs are beautiful thank you for this video

Your channel is so relaxing and I enjoy just vibing and mellowing out, seeing a tiny jungle/forest in your glass :)

These crabs are amazing! Love the colors and they are just too awesome! Thanks for sharing!

Wow!! I don’t know any other way to express how amazing your tank is. I am a nature show junkie of all types. Would love to replicate this tank. The flora is just as colorful as the inhabitants. Thank you for sharing!! Best wishes to your new babies and keeping them from becoming hor d’oeuvres.

hey man, what you've done is beautiful and you should keep going

Epic tank, love the setup! Can't wait to see more

I really like your video! Very entertaining/informative and straight to the point!

Awesome paludarium !!! Your babies are so lucky.💜

You are a very dedicated caretaker! Beautiful home you made for them. Congrats on everything going well. Super cool video🥰

I just love your videos !!!!!! Keep going, you're doing amazing job and we feel the passion !!!!

all your video's on the paludarium are amazing to watch. Also very relaxing.

That's awesome to know all this stuff about them. And those little baby crabs are so freaking cute. Lol.

Subscribed!! Amazing tank, awesome vid. Looking forward to seeing more!!

Beautiful tank. Joy to watch❤️plants looks lovely. Amaizing job👏

Dude I'm learning so much. Love your content

Just found your channel and love it. The set up must be right for the crabs to breed, hopefully a future video will go into this more as captive breading is the way forward imo. Just going through the videos atm , did you have any concerns regarding the crabs and other animals, may be this is addressed later. Thanks for sharing your experiences so far

Hello, I was trying to breed these guys, specifically Geosesarma tiomanicum, Disco Vampire Crab, and I was able to make babies! Unfortunately, my breeding chamber was not able enough to keep them alive because I just didn't trust my crabs enough to not eat them. I have photos of them and I can share them if you like! Also, if you do plan on separating them, I highly suggest to keep them in an enclosure where you can easily monitor them as well as provide lots of live moss, I am pretty sure at this point that these two reasons are why I wasn't able to keep the babies alive.

Dude, this is awesome. Thank you for studying them and letting the world know. Take a like/thumbs up

This is such a cool video. I didn’t have any idea that these crabs even existed but you definitely earned a subscription from me. Can’t wait to see what else you have done.

Damn makes me want to get a tank like that myself. Never thought about having crabs in a vivarium, but those critters are simultaniously cute and metal \m/ But then again this probably requires alot of research and daily care so they don't suffer in my glassbox .....yea yt videos will do for now.

I never thought crabs would interest me this much, guess I was wrong. Thanks for the info and great informative video.

i liked this video and subbed. was cool, laid-back and chill. good luck with the channel!

Dope setup and complete video. Congrats on the spawn

3:08 when you eating popcorn while watching bbc earth 😆😆😆

Really awesome progession on the tank! Looks awesome and the crabs really fit the aesthetic. Was that a mourning gecko at the end? Funnily enough my current tank build is also for mourning geckos :) they will really like it in your paludarium. Maybe you can become a vampire crab breeder now, if they do it consistently, to push against the practise of catching them in the wild. How long do they normally live?

This video was awesome to watch! I thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you for sharing!

AWESOME setup! These creatures are clearly thriving under your care. It all looks amazing. Also, thank you for sharing the ugly truth about wild captures and supporting captive breeding.

I’m planning a build similar to this as a tree frog habitat. It’s awesome you’ve created a thriving system. I’d like to end up with the same result, I can’t find a ton of info on it but I’m guessing I won’t be able to include with crabs in my set up with the frogs.

Absolutely stunning tank you got there!!

Man this is so cool. Love what you're doing!

I'm speechless. This is amazing

KZfaq just recommended this video I'm so glad it did never heard of vampire crabs you're set up is the best I've ever seen can't wait to binge watch more of your video's

The way they feed themselves with their hands make them that much cuter

That’s one beautiful aquarium setup Very fancy and the visionary beauty color etc really stands out on video 👍🏼🤩 Fantastic thanks for sharing

the crabs are so cute !! every animal in there is adorable i love the shrimp as well
