Moja resurfaced, Koa's gone down.

Post by hermiwormi » Mon Nov 26, 2018 9:24 am

Moja has finally resurfaced this morning, but Koa went down. I'm pretty sure that Koa isn't molting again as he's recently come up from a molt. These two, my first two crabs, have grown sooo much! I can show the size comparison of their original shells to their shells now once I get home.

I never see all 5 of my crabs up at once anymore! I know that Chella, Siam(Always up), and Moja are currently up. Possibly Ozark, but I haven't seen him.

I have not seen my biggest for a while now, and I have not seen my smallest recently. My one who is up is digging, and making shells fall into the hole, so I could not take them out since the other crabs are underground.
One or hopefully two Clypeatus
Goodbye my little E. See you soon.
Bye Fred. You lasted almost 4 years with me. Hope you're with my E now! See you soon Reeba as well. I can't believe I lost you only after a month.
Crabbing for 4 years!

Mine do the same thing with the shells! I have so many underground, it's ridiculous
