Hi bought a few crabs a few days ago and they seem to die really fast. One died with a lost limb due to fighting and this one died look all normal. I'm not sure why they are dying so fast like that. It's not a lot of crabs too like 4 at most? Now only left 3. Second pic is my setup
I have moss in there also. Will they die if they eat moss? I add in leftover fish food and frog food as they have calcium ingredients.

Honestly clould be many things. Small Footprint of the Tank.
No vegetation / plants mine love Ferns.
What is your temperature they like 26° +
Is there clorine from your tap water?
Three thoughts:
1. Are they all the exact same species (color)? (Different colors will fight to the death)
2. Do you have more than one male? (Males fight to the death sometimes)
3. Were they shipped to you or the seller recently? (There’s a high mortality rate after shipping)
Your tank seems small / they have nowhere to go burrow, unsure if it’s just me but the soil looks pretty damp?
