Too bad i havent seen your post yesterday.
Put an airline without air stone inside the bucket and feed them with bbs freshly hatched every day. No macro algae. No subatrate. No live rock. If you have any, you can put live phytoplankton inside. Overall the breeding process for emerald crabs is very similar to breeding any other shrimp or crab.
Take a look into my guide for breeding p. elegans shrimps. The process is very similar.
Guide
The brine shrimp were a good idea, and Tavero’s advice is solid - fed live Baby Brine Shrimp (Artemia nauplii), under proper conditions, Mithraculus sculptus (the emerald crab) should have about a 20% survival rate to settlement. Enriched BBS can raise the survival rate to about 25%.
You can make a DIY BBS hatchery pretty easily, but I don’t know if you’d be able to produce enough/fast enough for this batch of larvaeGrowth, development, and survival of larval Mithraculus sculptus (Lamark) and Mithraculus forceps (A. Milne Edwards) (Decapoda: Brachyura: Majidae): economically important marine ornamental crabs
