Welcome To The Life Of Boomer
Posted: Mon Mar 21, 2016 1:58 pm
I really try not to have favorites, but when it comes to Boomer, its hard not to fall head over heals for him! He has a very sweet, silly, loving personality.
Boomer came up from his molt with me a few weeks ago, he resides in my 125g tank and is currently the only straw not molting. I think..Bubbles keeps popping up and then going back down, but Bubbles wasn't around all weekend, so I believe she is finally down for a molt. Boomer is my most active crab, can always be seen wondering about day or night. He gets into everything and eats like a pig! So I wanted to dedicate this thread to Boomer.
Playing hide-n-seek with me
He enjoys climbing up to this moss pit/shell shop and leaping off of it. He has big dreams to fly some day.
Boomer spends hours climbing around upside down on the screen lid, teasing the cats. He is extremely noisy when he is being "bat crab" and enjoys seeing the world upside down.
He gets very excited when I let him know its picture time. However, he is always worried if the lighting makes his butt look fat, so sometimes we have to take a few until he approves..
He spends a lot of time lounging by the pools.
He would also like to note, that crabs DO like to swim
But prefers to exit the pool sideways, so he can keep an eye on things.
So that is Boomer in a nutshell
He also wanted to give a shout out to his fellow crustacean homeboys across the living room.

And Banana- Boomer wishes you a safe and healthy molt. He will keep Bubba occupied via antenna talk,while you are down..don't worry
Little nugget and unknown crab...you are not forgotten either

We had a favorite too (shhh!) but he's gone down for a molt. The others are far less interactive and most stay hidden. 
& I'm pretty sure this was immediately post-molt. Maybe one day, lol. 
The bit on the left fits inside the bowl on the right-- makes replacing their water a thousand times easier because we can just lift the pebbles out then dump the old yucky water.
