I know a pet store around here sells them. I think they were about $10.00 each and basically small.

Default horseshoe crab

I bought two horseshoe crabs for my fish only tank. They were small. They are suppose to get up to 20 inches long. Not reef safe. They need a deep sand bed because they burrow ( at least 2 inches). Once in a while, I see them surface. They seem to survive in my 55 gal. mature tank. I have alot of microorganisms, bacteria, pods, etc. so I guess they are happy. They haven't grown any bigger after 6 months of purchase.
