Thanks! He was a rescue from someone on here. The one behind him as well. Along with 2 crazy Es and a teeny PP.

Re: I got scammed.
I had the same issue, man. I ordered a 1 1/2" opening, got a 2" opening. :/ It's a pretty dang big difference when it's for a crab. D: My poor guy tried to carry it, but it's too big for him, as I suspected.
Looks like I gotta drive to CA and find some good beach-side sellers like I did a year or so back. What a pain!

Re: I got scammed.
I had a similar issue when I ordered from Deltona. Weirdly, I got bigger openings for the jade turbos where I should have gotten smaller shells and got a 1.5 inch for the shell that should have been a little bigger. However, their shells are cheap enough and I have enough crabs that are or maybe out growing the mexican/tapesry turbo sizes that to me it's worth the gamble.
My big guy just had a growth spurt and got really beefy to boot. He's a perfect fit in a 1.5 inch opening jade turbo ATM (the one I got from Deltona so it was worth it), but I bet he'll hang around in that size for awhile until he just can't stand it any more just because jade turbos are so much heavier than mexican or tapestry turbos. After all it only took him a year and half and two molts to give up his mexican turbo that was already "way too small" lol.
