Claw Decay?

Edmund · Post by **Edmund** » 16 Mar 2007, 04:58

Just noticed that one of my crab has this decay on its huge claw. I thought it was just dried dirt stuck to its claw, but it wouldn't come off when I tried picking it off. I thought it was shell rot, but I don't know how shell rot is like? Does anyone have an idea of what this could be.

Are they getting enough calcium? That's the only logical thing I can think of. Any other ideas?

If you could take a picture of it that would help us try to help you figure it out.

It could be a bacterial infection. Get a picture please. And if it is a bacterial infection, you need this stuff....
