I'm not exactly sure lol I bought some from whole foods so I guess I'll know in a day or two if they start to sprout

well it's not very pretty but the crabs love it! I've only had it up for about 10 minutes and they've already climbed all over it!!

I'm thinking about making a chia/flax seed carpet in some spots of my crabitat for the crabbies to snack on and to add some color to my tank.
