Talk:Cardisoma armatum

Removed section of text.
I've removed a large addition to the article to here:

Rainbow crabs are land crabs. They should be kept in a dry land tank with sand and a large deep water bowl (with rocks so that the crab can climb out) the water bowl should take up a quarter of the land space. Cardisoma armatum is the name given to Rainbow crabs; this breed comes originally from Africa where they live on beach coasts. This information is relevant to most land crabs that need to climb out of the water to breathe. If you have hermit crabs the vivuruim information is relevant with the only change being that they need a shallow water dish so that they cannot drown. Firstly, something which is very important is that Rainbow Crabs must not under any circumstances be kept with other crabs, even other rainbow crabs - yes I know aquariams keep them together but they shouldn't. Rainbow crabs may seem to get on well together when they are young but as they reach sexual maturity they will become very aggressive to one another. This breed are very solitary and will fight (even to the death) if put with others. The only time they are seen together is during mating. The problem is that aquariams tell people that they can be kept in pairs and that their crabs have never fought. Young crabs will not fight, but within a few months they will end up fighting to the death. Avoid this situation, do not get more than one crab

Some people will have these Rainbow Crabs in their Aquarium, even those with large Aquariums. These crabs are highly desirable but you must provide a path to the surface of the water otherwise they will drown.
