Chlorinated Water
Would using carrots which were rinsed in either filtered or dechlorinated water (I forgot) four days ago would be able to be eaten by the crabs?
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.

Re: Chlorinated Water
Thanks! Recently I made a food calendar for my crabs because I felt like they did not get enough variety. Today, they have carrots, cuttlebone, quinoa, freeze dried shrimp, and blueberries from a Flukers color enhancer. Thy were eating it as soon as I put the bowl in the tank.

Re: Chlorinated Water
Yes, any food that you rinse in tap water should be fine if you dry it off.
I wouldn't think anything of it if they were rinsed days ago.

Re: Chlorinated Water
Chlorine isnt a stable compound in water and will quickly dissipate.

How long would it take to dissipate?

Re: Chlorinated Water
Chlorine evaporates in 24 hours. Chloramine will break apart on contact with lower pH foods.
