Papaya picked an unpopular shell!
Papaya picked an unpopular shell!
Thought you guys might think it's interesting that Papaya picked a Rapana rapiformus to wear last night. I bought the shell without realizing it was on the unpopular list and, once I realized it was, I figured it didn't hurt to keep it in there and I'm glad I did! Because he's a frequent shell changer (this is shell change #5 since I got him vs Egg's zero changes), who knows how long he'll stay in it but I'm glad he's getting some use out of it.

Holy moly! He's huge!!! Looks like a happy crab to me!
I always find it so odd when one of my guys pick up a shell that's not preferred.

I hope he picks one eventually too! He throws them off the shell shop onto the sub. I was putting them back everyday but have given up to every few days lol.mjjluver wrote:Cool! I wanna see him take a tonna shell next, lol
He is huge! So is his companion, Egg. Was able to snap this pic of them together (with the bonus of the tiny E on the right).PinchersAndShells wrote:Holy moly! He's huge!!! Looks like a happy crab to me!

What kind of shell is egg in? I have a crab with a shell like that that is getting big for it.
