Awesome color, looks like fried chicken :lol:

Hopefully he'll do a shell swap for you eventually. I've heard the E's can be a bit finicky about that!

I have 5 E's and so far 2 out of the 5 have switched to natural shells. I have 3 stubborn crabs but atleast he looks great after the molt. Now to ditch that awful painted shell. I really try to avoid painted shells but I couldn't resist some healthy beautiful E's!!!

I can certainly understand that, at least you know you're helping them out by getting rid of those painted shells once their done :D

I'm sure the rest will give up and switch down the road, just have to have patience with these darn crabbies :crabbigsmile:

Love his eyes.. (All e eyes actually) they just give them so much more personality and compliment their colours!

I am very partial to Es. I have 5 Es and 6 PPs but this big guy is the life of the tank!
