I'm not sure what happened but my last post didn't seem to work.
My crab has been buried for well over two months. I worry that she might be dead but I haven't noticed the fishy smell. Is it possible that she's dead but that I can't smell anything because she's buried?
no fishy smell?

Re: no fishy smell?
Can you see her from the bottom of the tank, if she has buried all the way down?

Hi again!
If you go back and read your intro thread: viewtopic.php?f=9&t=3273
I believe there have been a couple of replies to your concern about her being down so long.
If you try to keep the same topic in one thread, it's easier for people to remember who has what problem, and to see what answers have already been given.
I know it's in the lounge, but since the discussion started there, it's ok to keep it going there.
