Didja get one? We got 2 late last year, originally for my nephews but they haven't been very interested. But now I'm crazy for crazy crabs!

I went into a pet store the other day to buy some water ager, and came across an info sheet for them. Apparently I've bought the 2 hardiest crabs IN THE WORLD, because I've been doing everything wrong. Buy minimum 3, they're supposed to have a 'bath' every week outside the tank, they're supposed to be able to bury themselves in the sand otherwise they can't moult and will die - I did everything the opposite of that.

The guy was saying that when you set them up right, their little personalities come right out. They'd just put a fake tree in the tank a week ago, and the crabs were taking turns either kicking each other off the top of the tree, or just sitting on top of whatever crab was already there - that morning they were 3 crabs high on top of the tree!

So I'm getting some beach sand tonight, and I'll give 'em a bath and set up their tank right. Hopefully they'll be more active!
