Multiple Halloween hermit crabs

[kable8]

Hey all,
Interested to know peoples opinions on keeping multiple Halloween hermit crabs?
A quick look into this and its not really recommended, however, this will depend on tank size and temperament on the crab itself. I have one already and I absolutely love it! I think a second would be nice.
so,
Yes/no to multiple Halloween crabs?
If yes, what tank size would you require?
Any other important info if I wanted to keep a pair?

I have two in a 300g tank that don’t bother each other. Forget about keeping a conch though…

Thanks for the reply,
The one I have came from the LFS in a conch shell…
300g tank is incredible!
I should probably have added that My tank is around 65g, so I’m guessing this would be too small then?

I know this is years old but you can have 2 halloween Hermit crabs in a 65g if you provide plenty of shells specificly from conch, i did with No issues. I even kept 3 fighting conch togethur with them with No issue for 2 years. But as i Said plenty of Shell and supplement their food. Winning concept for me at least. Now all of them live togethur in a 150g tank for another 10 months and still No issue.
