    I'm confused as to what your crabs, pictures, and CUC have to do with this.

    You may have a problem with a cycle. Keep Prime handy and test daily.

    With that much livestock & in that small of a place you can possibly incur a second mini cycle. The bacteria isnt going to be able to handle the bioload which is gonna turn yout deterius into ammonia & run a cycle course. (possibly)

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    Yep, better safe than sorry. The system may be a little challenged secondary to the age of the tank and addition of two fish.
