I've been away skiing for a couple of days so the crabs have been eating solely dry mixes. Today I made them a really nice fresh meal of black berry, acorn squash with seeds, papaya, and mixed mushrooms all sprinkled with some honeydew cuttle bone treat. They also got a dish of fresh protein which has shrimp, salmon and talapia

Tilapia, papaya puree, strawberry, blueberry, raspberry, dried sea lettuce, dried greens, dried huckleberries, moose poop, and bee pollen.

ETA: Collins already plowed through the dried greens, eating some and knocking them all over. I can't see any of the bee pollen I put in the dry dish, one huckleberry is gone too, and he's clearly picked at the moose poop. Currently he's sitting munching on what looks like a bit of chicken that he must have stashed somewhere. Hope he saves some for the others.

If I put a piece of shrimp in the exotic tank or the pp tank they go crazy. I have tried salmon and tilapia both a couple of times and it does not look touched. They will devour sardines and tuna and not touch the fresh stuff. How is everyone serving fish?

I usually put a small, raw piece in. There's always a lot to be removed but I assume they pick at it because it'll usually be dirty or moved around the next day. Mine do seem to like sardines better then tilapia or salmon. I want to try silversides, I've heard other crabbers say they love them. Shrimp they seem to mostly like the tails or dried for me. I've never offered tuna.

They have a tuna that the only ingredients are tuna & extra virgin olive oil and I use that and the sardines Wode said were ok to use. I'm sure they are nibbling the tilapia and salmon, I just expected it to be like the shrimp that they drag all over the place and someone is always munching on it. Lol. I want to try sliversides too. We've probably read the same posts. I'm not sure where to get it. I also want to try crab.

I just have kind of overlooked tuna. Silversides are in the freezer at petstores with frozen fish foods and pinkies.

[mom23]

Good to know. I'll check at Petsmart next time I go. What's a pinkie?

Pinkie mice. Sometimes there'll be larger mice too but I mostly see pinkies.

[mom23]

Yeah...I wouldn't be good at feeding live critters to another critter. Although my brain knows it's nature being nature my heart is way too soft. Lol.
