Answers:
It sounds good, but one of your water bowls should have saltwater in it. Hermits, except for Ecuadorans, come from the ocean, and need to have some saltwater for bathing and drinking.

Sounds good! Just make sure they have enough room to roam around.

it sounds nice, in a tank right? with a good lid, right? they can climb, keep that in mind. we have a nice hermit crag named marc..don't ask..and he loved his tank...we have a light too to make sure his temp in there stays at about 75-80 and keep him humid and dont forget to bathe him periodically, not with soap...just a nice water bath. ours hold his sponge like a teddy bear.

The water bowls have to be deep, you really only need a sponge if you're using it to keep the humidity up, the sand should be damp (like that you would use to make a sandcastle) and it should be 4"-5" thick. Keep in mind real wood will probably mold in a few weeks unless it's cholla wood or something. Your tank should be at least 10 gallons and it need a cover to keep the humidity in. You also need a hygrometer to measure the humidity and a thermometer to measure the temp. You also need salt water, it is crucial to hermit crabs survival.

What is the humdity and temp? do you have a hygrometer and thermometer, and good crabitat depends on these things. Here is a caresheet to see if you are really meeting the needs of your pet
Housing/Crabitat:
no smaller than a 10 gallon glass tank, is preferable. A glass or plexiglass lid is also preferable, to keep proper temperature and humidity.
Temperature: 74-78 degrees F (thermometer)
Humidity: 70-80% relative (hygrometer)
Substrate:
moistened playsand, Forestbedding (Eco-Earth, Bed-a-Beast, etc). Moss and calcisand may also be added to the tank, however it is not recommended as a main substrate. minimum 3" deep or 2 1/2 times as deep as your tallest crab is tall if you have anything bigger then a micro.
Diet:
Commercial crab foods, Vegetables (favorites include-carrots, lettuce, parsley, spinach, and corn), Fruits (favorites include-coconut, mango, apples, grapes, and pears), Meats (seafood, silversides and chicken are favorites), Grains, Peanut butter, eggs, seeds, algae and seaveggies. Please see http://www.epicureanhermit.com for a list of other edible foods.
Purple pinchers need both fresh and salt water (dechlorinated %26 salt made with a good marine salt like Oceanic).
Shells:
Turbo, pica/magpie, Sharks eye. Shells with circular openings are favorites
Molting:
-Lethargic before and hyper after molting
-Legs tend to be dry and ashy pre-molt
-Will sometimes molt without a molt sac or other pre-molting symptoms
-Are thirsty and hungry pre-molt and post-molt
Other Characteristics:
-Sweet/nice temperament
-Love to climb
-Love to crowd into piles
-Not as active as other species such as the Es
-Like to hide during the day and are most active at night
-More willing to pinch if they feel threatened/scared
-Love to change shells
-Love to eat and climb on wood such as cholla/choya and corkbark
