Do all ur different crab species live together? I have one E and 5pps and was planning on getting the E his own tank once we get him a specie buddy. Suppose I just upgrade their tank I could keep them all together?

Daws, have you ever been pinched by anyone recently? If not recently, have you been while they were large?

I've been crabbing for almost 7 yrs and so far I haven't been pinched by any of them (knock on wood lol). Keep in mind I've only had these bigger/jumbo guys since late March early April.

I will say that the bigger crabs are the friendliest of them all. They don't run or hide and are often out all the time. You can also pick them up and they won't clam up. They're the nosiest ones IMO lol... My smaller ones are the ones I worry about. They're very skittish and don't like to be handled at all. They run as soon as they see a shadow or when entering the tank. And they DO clam up when being handled.

However, I try to be hands off as much as possible. The only time I really handle them is for tank maintanence - take them all out and put into my 90G temp/iso tank so I can stir/mix the sub and redecorate. (I only do one tank at a time cause I have so many crabs.) And this is done every 6 months or so depending if they're all up.

Beautiful crabs, and so big! Nova is really cool, those legs go on forever lol! A bit creepy though, he reminds me of a spider ( I have a bit of spider phobia )

Me too. And no matter how big or small they are, they all look like spiders to me. I keep having to repeat to myself..not a spider, not a spider.

@daws409 No pinches yet? Feels like im waiting for it to happen, lol. That would just really hurt if you got pinched.
