i have been a hermit crab owner for years, honestly they don't like moisture and it can be harmfull for them creating mites and such it is also hard for them to dig around i use coconut substrate they can also eat this, you should never directly spray in their containers as well!

if sand castle consistency means wet and clumpy than spray it with a spray bottle regularly. you can use an empty cleaning spray bottle filled with water. if you are too busy you can buy a mister they are available at pet stores.

put water in it but not to much to flood it but just enough for the sand to be soft for them.
