At last!!! Have a unused fish tank and decided to set up a tank for the crabs instead. After a few weeks, I have done it eventually. The crabs moved in now and I quite like them. They have their "cheeky" characters. Here are some pics. ;D See if you can find the crabs A few pics of the crabs taken individually (They are babies and still very tiny. The shop has some adult ones but I like to see them growing from babies to adults.)

Sian, you can't steal my BonSi (sp?) Tree. There's only one left in the shop and I have been kinda fighting with a woman for that already. (I was holding it but still looking for other ornaments, and she said if I don't want that, put it back down on the shelf as she wanted it! She followed me everywhere in the shop until I went and paid for it, she gave up in the end. ) luvfishies, the width of the crab is about 1 1/2" (that is including the claws), so they are all very tiny. One is only just over 1/2" in width. I was told they will grow to about 4", so there is a long way for them to grow if I don't kill them before! LOL. The crabs are pretty cute, whenever I go near to the tank, they just hide straight away but then peek out from the hiding place to see what's going on.

Bonsai. I woulda told her to sod off!! Cheeky woman. People are allowed to look at more than one ornament lol. I keep looking at them in pets at home but they're so expensive! Aww, I'm sure they'll get used to you soon. They look so sweet ;D

My hubby gave me crabs once.....pmsl sorry he bought me a couple of crabs from out local lfs as a surprise gift a few years ago.
They were bloody awful....escape artists and fish nippers.
They look very happy in their crabby set up though....I hope you get babies. ;D

I bought mine in pets at home. It's expensive, but I think that will last. I usually just go to the cash and carry (believe this or not, I once have a pet shop, so I still can get access to the wholesaler) and get ornaments from there, they are almost half the price what they cost in the shop. Got a few for my snailies tanks. ;D

LOL @ hubby vage you crabs. ;D The crabs meant to be very good to escape. I don't have any fishes in the tank, so I should be okay, just have to make sure the lid is close tight. And I DO NOT want baby crabs. They'd better not give me babies. But they are very cute ATM.

*Dies* Oh-My-God. I need umm 3 of them, in a tank like that. Time to beg my mom. I LOVE crabs(Especially land hermit crabs, but I love all crabs, and everyone even in school knows that!) They are so awesome and I am so jealous!
