My current hermit crab habitat is a 5 gallon glass aquarium.
There are 4 small hermies residing here, two of which just recently joined the family.
They have just the bare essentials, basic sand substrate, a hut, a few extra shells, food and water. There is no heater, no humidity gauge, no thermostat, no light, and the tank is loosely covered with a piece of plastic wrap.
I own plenty of extras for the crabitat, but we're sticking to basics for now :)
The tank decor is cleaned weekly. Each piece is rinsed in near-boiling water. At this time the hermies take their weekly bath in a bowl of room temperature, dechlorinated water.
