So right now, I have a mass molt going on. I have 6 crabs molting. 4 PPs and 2 Es. I usually only have 3 at a time, but now theres 6! I have 3 in the 10 gallon ISO, one dime sized E in a small KK and then 2 others in a medium KK. When I checked, one was already dug down in the medium KK.
The three in the 10 gallon ISO are all up and hardened and have eaten all of the food I put in there for them. Hopefully they'll get a little more active and then they can go back into the main tank.

I bought 5 new crabs the other day. They're all so cute. I got one that I fondly call Stump. Hes missing the top part of his pincher claw as well as the bottom part of a leg. He already changed shells on me. Hes very friendly. Seems like hes more friendl in the new shell then he was in the old one.

I picked up a coco hut that had about 4 or 5 crabs under it (Including my 3 bigger ones) and the way they reacted makes me think they were stuck. They all went out, one went towards the water and started drinking right away, another went under another hidey, and then goliath began his climb. When I just went up and checked all 4 were in the tree! Goliath is sitting at the very top of the tree as if to say "Im the king".
