Just saying hello!

Post by ShelledMayhem » Tue Nov 03, 2015 12:03 am

Figured I'd sign up already since the new Es are definitely causing some head scratching. Mostly the typical E behavior of refusing to give up a shell, even if they're living in an ugly painted Turbo that's much too small. Even a similar sized non painted Turbo is ignored. Es.

Otherwise, there's a 65 gallon crabitat with 12 PP and a 80 gallon crabitat with 8 Ruggies, 3 Strawberries and 3 Violas. Probably intro the Es in the 80 gallon. 4 Es not molting, 2 went right into molt/PPS but they smell clean so far. The molters are in 10 gallon iso tanks as they were trying to surface only. The four are in a 25 gallon, three are pretty stable and one is baffling me. I'll ask on him elsewhere.

Also here are the cats Drusilla and Seagull and the dog Winston.

Mostly, they're pretty good and not too hard to care for. I think it helps that there's enough crabs, they can do crabby things vs get bored. Which means tank remodeling but it's not so neurotic as much as crabs are crabs.
