lost mine when we moved. i'd do it again in a heartbeat.

They are ridiculously hard to find. I tried with ARC for a while but the suppliers just didn't have them. I tried online and no one online had them so ARC got a hitchhiker in that I took and he happened to be pretty active. Really nice orange with blue appendages. Will post pics when my lights come back on

I had one briefly but lost it after a bad moult. I'm looking for about a 2-3" scyllarus sp.

I have a red one been trying to get out of my tank

Do you hear it popping?

 

[pilotguy]

This is my first and the thing won't be quiet all day long he is hitting something. For Christmas he got a nice big emerald crab. Santa came a little early

On a side note if anyone has any snails or hermits or pest crabs they want to get rid of I'll be happy to take it off your hands. Just send me a pm
