Today the crabs are getting kibbled

1 thawed shrimp w exo
1 thawed coconut chunk
1 thawed pineapple chunk
pinch bee pollen
pinch rooibos
big pinch spirulina
little pinch of natural sea salt

garnished with a couple of rose petals and a blob of honey on top.

Things are still thawing, so if it's too juicy for what I'm going for (frequently happens when I add pineapple), I'll add a little ground flax seed to the mix.

Xanadu - most of mine seemed to avoid bananas the first couple of times I tried them ... then one time I mixed them with another fruit (I think it was strawberries) and they ate that up! I also left some plain ones in the tank for a second day once, (and they were getting all dark and mushy :smt017 )and they seemed to like them better that way too than when they are nice and fresh lol.

raw or cooked shrimp?

Could i just pick up some raw shrimp from my local Hy-Vee? Would that be appreciated? For Christmas I am ordering my crabs a huge amount of frozen fishy things (silversides, eels, bloodworms, etc.)

hehehe..
and for a 'Halloween gift" they are finally getting their 29 gallon tank.

I can't wait to post pictures.

Either cooked or raw. Cooked slightly (doesn't have to be all the way) doesn't smell as bad as soon as raw, so you can leave it an extra day sometimes.

Tonight they are having:

Steamed baby carrots with chopped apple, crushed pecans, coconut, raisins & then drizzled with honey.

(Almost sounds like a Waldorf salad, doesn't it???) :wink:

Boiled (to soften) dried corn kernels, (with cob separated) pineapple chunks, and briefly blanched spinach as a bedding. Drizzled with a bit of honey.

Had a bit too much packed on to there today, but oh well lol.
