Hello Mr Crabs, Snail Shop has Vampire crabs for sale, but these require a terrarium and cant be put into an aquarium without a large land area. Hope this helps. Thanks

Yes you could use a 30 inch tank, that would be fine for a group up to about 6 crabs. You can find all the info you need on the link below:
If you didnt want to go to the trouble of making a separate water section in the tank using glass and silicone, then a simple water tray about 1-2 inches deep works well also.
