If he eats it i would assume so which is why i am a little upset about it. But there isnt much i can do, my landlord wants these rats taken care of. And hes got to do what hes got to do.

Awww yay you found thing 1!! That's awesome hopefully galactus will avoid the rat poison! They seem to be pretty good at figuring out what they can and can't eat. I can't believe they got there in the first place. Absolutely crazy!

No we never found him and we stopped hearing from him. The rat poison hasn't been put out yet. If he did escape, he escaped first which means he has been out there for almost 3 weeks.

I love your story. It proves to show that miracles can happen and to never give up hope. I am so glad you found Thing 1 and hope you can find Galactus. Good luck!!

So to the best of my knowledge the rat poison was never put out. But we never heard or saw any sign of him this week. Thing 1 hasn't molted but seems to be doing fine. He is the biggest crab in the tank so no one is really giving him a hard time or anything and he seems to be doing fine missing a leg and a half.

Thank you guys for all your support it really helped me keep my head on straight. And even though i am really thankful we found Thing 1 I hope galactus miraculously shows up somewhere.

Erik, every time I log on the first thing I look for is a new post from you saying Galactus has been found. We're all pulling for both of you. Don't give up hope.

He was not. Sorry for not updating this thread, i have been avoiding my HCA account lately because i feel so bad about it. Thing 1 is recovering in a molt right now and seems like he is doing fine. My other three crabs are getting along great and enjoying the 40g tat.

Thank you all for your support and concern.

I'm so sorry to hear about Galactus. I know you must be missing him :( I'm glad to hear that Thing 1 is doing well and good luck with his molt!
