Just saying hi

Only Sao and Tia are out tonight and maybe Jack. Does it drive anyone else crazy that they have no clue where the rest of their crabs are? I swear I have more.

I know what you mean. We have 8 crabs in our one tank and maybe see 1 or 2 at a time. I think they do it to drive us crazy!

Awesome pictures!
Although, you may want to cover that wheel in plastic mesh, the crabs can snap off a leg in the metal mesh.

Yes, definitely- I don’t recommend the metal wheels at all~ even covered in mesh! They are extremely dangerous. The plastic ones are much safer. Nobody can lose a limb on those. I personally like the Kaytee silent spinner.
