Possible. I just hope that they are getting all the nutrients they need. Could it be that my Herman did not finish his exo and that is why he is binging on calcium

that would make sense. i give calcium powder in a dish usually once a night. maybe thats why mine dont touch the cuttlebone.

Well I keep the cuttle bone in there and sometimes sprinkle crushed eggshells over their food

I had one do that the other night with something I fed them. It was funny. My crab Jack angled himself so that his she'll covered the entire bowl

Caught him in the act. Not the best pic cause the condensation is starting to build up again but there is Herman eating away at the cuttle bone.

Thanks. I heard movement and thought it would be Teal'C or Rose so I checked and there was Herman munching away
