I assume that Teal'C has gone down for a molt cause I have not seen him for a few days. Pinchy has not reappeared since he went down after getting his pincher cracked open by Jack before I adopted Jack out.

They are so cute : ) All three of mine just came up from molts also. I love how busy they are now exploring and eating - a lot! I have a hammock I have been wanting to use for my crabitat but I'm not sure the suction cups will hold up. How do you have yours attached??

I used command strips with mine. I never could get those cups that came with it to work.

Yeah. Those suction cups got on my nerves. The weight of the shells and the crabs yanking on them knocked them-down every night. The hooks work a whole lot better.

My suction cups have never once fell off. I've been lucky cuz I got them from dollar tree. If you soak then in warm water for 5 minutes it helps them stick. I can't get any to stick where the heat mat is though. I ann using hooks to hold up the hanging coco moss pit I made and I wish I had used a suction cup as I can't change its position without wasting the command hook.

True it is a waste of the strip of you have to reposition but the suction cups that come with the hammock do not work no matter what you do. I tried for about two weeks but nothing helped them stick. I would put them up in the morning and the next day the crabs had knocked them down again. So i ended up switching to command hooks for my hammock and my vine. They have not knocked it down since I put them up and I am a whole lot less stressed out over it.
