My crab Venus has been acting very oddly for the last few months. I just got back from my holiday trip to Hong Kong, and when I arrived home, I went to check on my hermies after taking them back home from my neighbours. It seems that Venus hasn't moved a muscle since I last saw her before my departure, but she doesn't smell dead at all. In fact, I've noticed that her claws have changed colour, from white to tan. My neighbours said they never saw Venus run around nor eat. I don't think she's pre-molt because all my other crabs who molted were only pre-molt for only one or two weeks, then molted. But Venus has been like this for two months. She doesn't fall out of her shell, instead, she's slightly tucked in tightly. Is she dead?
On the otherside of the ISO, I found Mercury dead under the sand
. In the main tank, Pluto also passed away during a molt. I'm not sure if he was attacked, there were shed legs and claws on the surface. I found his little body also under the sand, in a mess
. I only know that Jupiter and Neptune are okay, they're still very active.
