You should keep crabs in a sterile location if you are treating for mites. No sub, moist paper towels and a hidey. If you use the preds, you don't need to be so extreme.

I would order in march/April to get the best chance of receiving your orders in a timely manner. Once...

I didn't have such good luck with my last order. Two of the three Indos were pretty unhealthy from the start. I lost one, the other dug under a while ago. I'm assuming he's gone as well. The rugs I got seem to be doing fine, though.

I just wanted to bump this post because we seem to have a lot of new straw owners on the forum. I think it's a great wy to see that your straws can get plenty of beta carotene outside the traditional orange/red fruits and veggies!

That's great to hear, Kuza. Glad it's getting easier!
