I'd start changing the water every week if you are doing partial water changes and the tank is cycled, or twice a week if you are doing 100% water changes and cleaning everything so the tank never cycles. Read this so you know what cycling is...it's very important. http://fish.orbust.net/cycling.html

 Sorry to hear your crabs keep dying, but are they true freshwater aquatic crabs? What species? Carefully check their care requirements before replacing your pets.

Red clawed crabs are not true freshwater (they're brackish) or fully aquatic crabs (they require land). This may be part of your problem, in addition to the tank being too small and not cycled.

| Do more research on whatever animal you are buying before you make the purchase.
