Can be cultivated artificially. If you want to do your own farming. Then you can choose to breed red crabs. Red crabs are very easy to raise and they reproduce very quickly. Really a nice species. Also, the selling price of red crabs is relatively expensive, so I think breeding red crabs should still be more profitable. So feel free to breed. Not a big problem.
5. Christmas Island red crab spawning process
1. Every year in October and November, when the rainy season begins, red crabs migrate to the coast to breed.
2. During migration, red crabs leave their caves and head to the coast to mate and lay eggs. This process usually takes at least a week. Male crabs usually arrive before the females, and once on shore, the males dig burrows, which they must defend from other males. Male and female crabs mate near the cave. After mating, the male returns to the forest, while the female remains in the burrow for another two weeks. During this time, they lay eggs, which hatch in an abdominal pouch to facilitate their development. At high tide, the female crab leaves her burrow, releases her eggs into the sea, and then returns to the forest. The eggs laid by female crabs hatch immediately upon contact with seawater, and swarms of young crabs stay near coastal reefs until they are washed out to sea. The hatched crabs stay in the sea for another 3-4 weeks, during which time they go through several developmental stages and eventually develop into large-eyed larvae like shrimps. Big-eye crabs gather on the shore for 1-2 days, and then turn into juvenile crabs with a diameter of only about 5 mm.
