PP?

Post by llmercll »

I was wondering, if a crab has a very purple pincher, does that automatically make him a PP?

It's eyes don't seem perfectly round, but not fully oblong either.

Your crab looks to be a very well-colored PP! PP eyes aren't perfectly round - your guys' eyes look just like the eyes of the PP in the picture on the Species Identifier Tool.
