I figured he was an E because his coloring is very different than the others I have. The others all have pretty bright purple pinchers and a very red color, this one is more white with a blue pincher. I guess that could be him just getting ready to molt soon? I don't know I'm still new at this lol.

He is a beautiful purple pincher!!! E's typically have elongated eyes like so...

Re: New guy here, and some pics of crabs and such.
Here is one of the items I picked up today, I have a few others still waiting to put in. I have to figure out a moss pit and how to secure it in the top of the tank somewhere and then I have some stuff to build bridge/ramps up to it and the tree and such.

At Petsmart in the reptile area. It was called Reptile Bonsai large or something. I love it too!
The current state of the crabitat and the newest big crab climbing the tree!
I have a container I stuck on the other side, it's hanging I just need to figure out how to get something over to it. I got some silk plants from Michaels but I'm just not sure I like them enough to use them. I can't figure out how to put them in the cage? They have a bunch of branches and stuff and just not sure how to make it look good and be functional for them.

Noway that would fit in a 20g lol. There was a smaller one I believe though. It just barely fits in my 55g with about 10" or so of substrate.

Re: New guy here, and some pics of crabs and such.
You have one E and the rest are PP's. The E needs a species buddy so you might want to look for at least one more.
E's need DEEP sub and lots of digging space. Also make sure to feed them more protein and they also kike it a little warmer than what we would usually keep PP's at, but at the higher end of the safe range for PP, upper 80's are good.
