i was just wondering...trying to keep it short, we got our first two crabs inn panama city,knew NOTHING have come a long way inn a short time [smilie=clap.gif] very nice set up ect..as soon as i set up right inn the new big tank,my purple pincher was alone and dug down(not far but down)i havent seen him inn a week,ive since ordered 3 new crabs from tcp ,posted pics of them a few days ago,2 e"s and a female pp for him.they all seem to b fine and getting around well.but whats going to happen when this guy comes up? they r gonna b like ; who the heck r you ?
will there b aggresion? i hope not :( . on a different note we were all like yea were getting e"s yay! and guess what? the little pp girl is sooo sweet,not as shy and very outgoing. imagine that :roll: anyhow does anyone have experience with this situation? as im worried about when he comes up.

From my personal experience, i havent had any aggression after a crab comes up that my other crabs havent seen. :)

I have gone through 5 molts and have added crabs to the tank while they were down. No probs when they came back up. Yours should be fine. In fact, he will prob. be happy that you got him a species buddy!
