The 90 Gallon Crabitat

I bought a 90 gallon aquarium in June and spent the rest of the month customizing it. Using plexiglass and sealant, I built two pools on one end of the tank. One is a fresh water pool, the other is a salt water pool and both have mini filters so they function as small aquariums. The crabs have been living in this tank since the beginning of July and everything has been going well.
