Crab hasn't gone under in a over a month.

Post by Manny 223 » Tue Oct 13, 2020 2:25 pm

A little over a month ago I got my crabs some new shells they moved into them real fast but ever sense then they haven't buried them selfs, ive had one go back into his old shell and then go under but the other has not. Are the shells to big? They also will only go into turbo shells.

Crabs don't always change shells before or after a molt. It is normal for them to stay top side for a while.

I have two crabbies that went underground and of the two, only one switched shells. Several others of mine have switched a few times but are still looking healthy and haven't gone under at all.
