Default Re: Why do you have to seperate???

All my hermies moult in the tank they are in. I've yet to have another crab bother a moulter.

As for eating, you might notice a crab in the water-regular and salt-and eating more than usual, so the answer is no, they don't have anything to eat when they moult.
