shell change

Post by AJV » Sun May 13, 2012 4:37 am

i just watched the coolest thing last night. Ryosuke, my new little crabby changed from his shell to one of them that i got yesterday. i wish i would have thought fast enough to get a video. i had no idea that they did that .. just switched shells like that without molting.
im not sure what type he is. i dont see the hairs on him like i do Hermes bc he is so small, but he has a blueish/purple big claw

gratz, it's amazing watching your first shell change, and second, and third... it never gets old :)

And they don't only change when they molt, that's just when they often do it, shortly before or after.

P.S. Sounds like he's a PP. ^^ Those are the ones you most commonly find around here.
