THIS LITTLE DARLING NEEDS TO SWITCH ASAP...hate that I can't just ask her/him. So shy.


This little girl didn't make it. She moved into a hide and just stayed there not moving. When I got up this morning, her shell had been turned over and looked empty. Since it's painted and flaking, I reached in, hoping to remove the shell. She was still in it. She has a slightly fishy smell but her pincher and other legs are limp. I used the handle of a spoon to check and there is zero resistance when I touched her.


RIP Flowers

I'm so sorry for the loss Sometimes, no matter what we do, new crabs can't handle the PPS.

Sorry about flowers. :/
Her claw in that pic looks really bad, it's hollow. She probably just didn't have the energy to pull through a molt.

thanks all

Awesome job on your upgrade. The colors are beautiful.
