Cleaning the rank this morning and went to move their cuttlebone and noticed this. I think my crabs are planning to kill me. Mostly don't by Herman.

Seriously every night since he's been up from his molt he files it down more.

He hides during the day but at night just eats away at this thing

Thats so funny. I have a half of cuttle bone in and all four of mine have left it alone.

This is what it looks like this morning. Is it a bad thing that one crab is eating so much calcium

I doubt it's something to worry about. They eat what they need when offered a good variety. It is also very possible the others are helping when you aren't observing.

Possible. They do a lot of moving around when I'm asleep. Every now and then their she'll bangs on the glass waking me up but I try to leave them alone at night so I don't actually observe them. I just assume it's Herman because before he came up there was only tiny nibbles being taken.

I know. My crabs are always doing the weirdest things. Like I put a hibiscus flower in once and they ignore it. Put it on a different day and they eat some of it. They are just very weird.

This is what it looks like today. I think they are done with their plans.
