Hermit Crab Reproduction?

Thank you so much for your prompt response. I feel terrible to know I caused its death. I do spray the crabs (obviously not enough) and make sure they always have plenty of clean water in their dish and sponge. I have kept them successfully for years at a time. And I have read up some – again obviously not enough. I only learned from your site about their need for salt, though I should certainly have figured that out considering they come from the shore. I never, never heard anything about the crab molting – not from any of my friends who have many more hermit crabs than I have.
