*Don't... Put too many crabs in one bucket. Stick to 10 per pail.
*Do... Add rocks to the bucket to help replicate the crab's natural environment, and reduce stress.
*Don't... Keep them all day long – return them to the sea.
*Do... Change the water every hour to avoid asphyxiation. Only keep the crabs in sea water.
*Don't... store your bucket in the sun.
*Do... Go crabbing. When done responsibly, crabbing is an excellent way to introduce children to the marine ecology.
