I am so grateful for Mötor and Xeno! It was so great meeting you finally after chatting on here for a while and like you said, I’m thankful that I know they are going to a great home and by the pics you’ve sent know they’re in crabby paradise [emoji267]. Wish I could have taken them with but our sit...

Re: Holy Crab Mesh!

I forget where I ordered my black and green from. It wasn’t Joanne’s but it was definitely online. Colors look great!

Re: Crabbie Cam Videos (Updated 6/16/19)

Thanks. I believe the color boosting foods I purchased from Etsy from The Cholla Queen are the secret. After their last molts most of them seem to have gotten darker. Even the rescue I got in January seems to have darkened after his first molt with me. Nice!! And does the popcorn mesh container hav...

Re: Moving Crabs Long Distances

If your road tripping, and you plan on keeping the tank. This is what I would do - others may differ, but this is purely my opinion if I was in your shoes! - decommission the tank roughly 2-3 weeks prior to the move, to ensure and moulters have sufficient time to finish - no one wants the stressing...

Moving Crabs Long Distances

My family and I are moving two states over in a month or so. I know some of you have moved with your crabs before, so I’m looking for advice on how to do this with them. I reached out to Motorcrab and Xenocrab about watching them but I want to try to move them with me. What mobile setups would I nee...

Re: Plexiglass lids

So, with the price of plexiglass, I dont think we are going that route immediately. I totally underestimated those numbers. I would have ended up spending about $100 for the lid, which isnt a bad price but I also have to reinforce it so it doesnt warp and fasten it down all around. So, for right no...

Yeah, that would work. Mine was under my mesh lid.

Same thing happened to all of my handmade plexi lids. I gave up and went with glass.

Crabs Drag Minnow

I fed my crabs their first minnow the other day and it was a hit for at least two of them! They drug it out of the bowl, under the moss pit, and in through the skull! I will definitely be buying more of these from The Healthy Hermit. Thanks Stacy! https://youtu.be/zcWlV2vFRCs Sent from my iPhone usi...

Re: Hamster wheel won't turn? I have a pic of it, any ideas.

Like Motörcrab said I don’t think you need to worry about them falling off. I didn’t even have a wheel and they kept climbing to the top of their plastic trees and second level moss pit and they’d just fall. I figure they wouldn’t keep doing it if it really hurt them. But they’d just crawl back up a...
