You know your a crab addict when....
You know your a crab addict when you go grocery shopping and only think of what your crabs might like.
Please don't breed or buy while shelter pets die! Opt to Adopt!!
I know an awful lot about hamsters, betta fish and many other animals so don't hesitate to ask me if you have an animal related question!!!

Your significant other has to take your keys when he leaves, and then lock you in your own apartment while he's at work and you're at home, just because he knows you'll run down the road to the pet store and buy a PP.....

When you hide a 10g tank with two ISO'ing hermies on the lower level of a 2-tiered end table, blocked from view by the dog's crate because you promised hubby no more tanks!LMAO That's my situation right now. I told hubby about adopting 11 but not about the 2 from the store. I promised right there no more tanks and figured I could merge the 11 with my existing E's and put the 2 in my empty ISO but the 11 were too new at only 1 1/2 weeks.

My iso is a 5 gallon sitting permanantly on a shelf to the (mostly hidden) side of my entertainment center. I leave it there all the time so it won't be obvious when I get new crabs.Um.. my addict indicator? You won't go to the drive in because you don't want to be up late before teaching Sunday School, but you will stay up until midnight on the crab forum.Oh, and then you get up early so you will have time to check the forum before you go.
I have had hermit crabs for a couple of years and still have most of my originals. I joined LHC over a year ago and have learned a lot about crab care there. I have about 50 crabs (PP, Straw and E) in my 130 gallon tank that is a feature point of my living room.

You know you're an addict if ever given a quote like this: (paraphrased about salt water)"I don't always bother measuring. I just pour in several tablespoons of salt, fill half the bottle with hot water, shake it around, and then add cold. If I want to make sure I've got it salty enough, I stick in a finger and taste it. If I make a face and yell "bleck!" I know it's about right."On that same note, you know you're an addict if you know what crabby salt water tastes like.

You talk your fiance into buying you 1 more hermit crab, because there's a dead one in the tank, and when he tells you to let someone else take it home, reply that the pet store doesn't give out the right care information.
