Mr. Crabs, which I was most worried about since he was so pale, moved around after I peeked at him. But Sebastian didn't return to his spot and smells like death. Not fishy, but something died under your house smell. I put him back in just in case. But I think he's gone.
Awe, so sorry! They have such a hard life before they come to us. You tried your best! I'm sorry for your loss!

Thank you. I haven't rechecked on the other one but he also hasn't moved in over a day. I'll check on him today.
