It'll probably be good to ease her back into socializing with fellow crabs gently since (if I was in her place) she might be feeling kinda sketchy about them since they attacked her..
I'm so glad shes up! Woo!

i'm sure if anything she remembers the crabs uhm, eating her

That would be hard to forget, even for such a tiny creature

I'm pretty sure they have some form of memeory, because I accidentally dropped the tank lid on my largest crab (like 3 inches); every time the tank lid moves, he now hides (even if they means rolling/falling) into his shell. Previously, he would perk up at the site of the tank lid moving, it meant food and attention for him, now it's like he sees a ghost!

Any updates?

I think she's back down again.

She eats a bit and then goes on digging sprees, but I don't think she's eaten in two days so maybe she's molting again? It's really worrying me how much she's molting as she's not eating much in between.

Hmm... I hope she continues to be strong (and im sure she will)

Before I forget again - she's up!

And looking very normal.

I really need to tear down her ISO anyways, so great timing! I've got to do some cleaning in the main tank first, but she'll be going back in there sometime this weekend. I'll pics when I can, but for now she's still not coming out.

What an amazing story! Glad she's up and about. I think you just earned your PHD in crab care.

I could not get her to come out at all, so rather than stress her I just added her back to the main tank. Honestly, without flipping over shells I don't know where she is or how she's doing for now, but I'm sure she's fine.

Next time I do a major tank spruce up (a few weeks) I'm going to try to find her and get some more photos.

Phew! That was a long seven months of worry! Good her have her back where she belongs.
