Bye, CastAway, and max.

Post by HermitCare » Mon Nov 23, 2009 12:35 am

The poor little guys died this morning.... They would slip in and out of their shell when I picked them up...My Pet Smart didn't have the best care for the crabs. A bunch of jumbos were piled on max when I saved him, and CastAway was near the water bowl.I saved them both at different times. CastAway had a weird brown color, and max looked to small for his heavy shell, so I think getting to the food and water bowls was a problem. they both slowed down in the same spots in the tank, and died...They never moved a muscle, and they smelled like rotting fish.I know it wasn't my care. Everything was right. I took everyone's advise.Now crabea is lonely, until Domino is done resting up from the molt.I'm going to get crabs from a different store, a Petco, or a different Pet Smart.I still can't believe it went by that fast...
