as long as your conditions are good, this shouldn't be worrisome. crabs change color from time to time. it may even be preparing for a molt. how much substrate do you have and what kind is it? how hot and humid is the tank? do you provide pools of dechlorinated fresh and marine salt water large enough for the crabs to submerge in?
