I did a deep clean yesterday, so they are all recovering from it. It was funny when they were put back into the tank - EVERYONE was exploring, even the shyest crab. Heck, the shy one was dangling upside-down from the top edge of the tank! At this point, three of them are resting at the base of the cholla, and who knows where the others are.

Right now? Not much. :)

Napoleon and Herman are my two smaller crabs and they're buried, who knows where.

The bigger boys just had baths and are playing with a piece of coco-fiber wall that I put on the floor. They get under it then push it over!
