He should be in a tank with correct conditions as soon as possible.. don't gradually get him there.

Offer lots of high energy foods like honey, organic peanut butter, egg shells, egg and unsalted nuts

I have moved this topic from 'pictures' to 'crab and care questions'.

I agree that you should get the crab into ideal conditions asap.

Also, he won't be stuck in the shell, it is not a painted shell. It may be too small, but if he got in then he can get out.

I second the above posters. If she got in there she can get out. Put her in the main tat right away and offer some appropriate shells. She'll move when she's ready!
