So long Mario....

Post by CrabbyJo »

Mario passed sometime in the past 4 days. I received him as a gift from my husband for Valentine's day on Feb. 13, 2009. I think it was largely stress, and then some too warm tank conditions on top of it that didn't seem to bother my other crabs much, but apparently he was much more sensitive and went into high distress. With the help of many others online I did everything I could to help him along. I can only feel good that he did finally go into a shell that fit him well just before he passed, and he stayed in it and quietly went on to travel the Rainbow Bridge. Goodbye Mario, we'll miss you.
