Do they just scavage like other crabs or snails? Or do I have to target feed them? And what do they need to eat to survive? Do they eat simple mysis/brine shrimp? I just bought two decorator crabs for my 10 gallon tank. Not sure how they will do but they are only a few inches big. Also, do they ever crawl out of tanks? Is that possible at all?
 
Crabs are scavengers meaning they eat all the food they can find. You can target feed as you wish.
it is possible for them to climb out but it’s unlikely that they will climb out
