First success Triple the joy!!

Post by crypticlaman »

Greetings all!!
My internet got knocked out for a bit and with only eight visits to time warner, here I am back again.

Update:Lee never moulted. Im not sure what that weird thing is when he lays on his side for a couple days and turns ashy but he keeps doing it. Then hell get up a few days and be normal.
I got a new crab. she was so tiny i couldnt resist when i went to buy a new choya log. Aptly name lenore went missing under the sand the day i got her.

Poe came up bright purple after going down red. Annabelle came up shiny bright red when shed gone down almost a cream color with red tips. Lenore came up the same colors as she went down with two string like white things running the full length of her middle section on each of her pinching claws. (my newbie assumption being they are slivers of exo that didnt come off).

I was encouraged by the rich colors of poe and annabelle. It made me feel as if id been providing good conditions for them. Lenore coming up without change reinforced that feeling as i hadnt even had her a full day before she went down.
I wanted to thank all of you who gave me advice and update you on what was going on here. Thank you all so much really!! :D
