Tropic Marin Pro KH Test Kit
Tropic Marin Pro KH Test Kit
Alkalinity is probably the easiest test and by doing routine alkalinity tests it is easy to keep a pulse on your aquariums carbonate intake. The intake of carbonate by corals is done in a relatively balanced ratio and can also be used to know when to dose other additives. Tropic Marin Pro kH Test Kit is perfect for any reefer that wants reliable and repeatable alkalinity tests. The two-part reagent system allows for more precise reading than competitors while holding a tight range of error.

Feeding & Diet
Feeding & Diet
An opportunistic omnivore, the Pithos Crab will scavenge detritus, uneaten food, and algae — making it a natural cleanup crew member. Supplement with small meaty foods like mysis shrimp or pellets 2–3x per week if natural food sources are limited.
Care & Water Parameters
Care & Water Parameters
The Pithos Crab thrives in stable, well-maintained reef conditions. Target parameters: temperature 72–78°F, salinity 1.025–1.026 SG, pH 8.1–8.4, and alkalinity 8–12 dKH. A mature, established tank of at least 20 gallons is recommended.
Reef & Tank Compatibility
Reef & Tank Compatibility
Generally considered reef-safe. The Pithos Crab coexists well with most corals and peaceful fish. Use caution with very small invertebrates or slow-moving tankmates. Provide ample rockwork and hiding spots to reduce territorial behavior.
Size & Growth
Size & Growth
Pithos Crabs are typically shipped at 0.5–1.5 inches. They are slow-growing and generally remain small, making them well-suited for nano and mid-size reef systems.
