bro lucas, thanks for sharing so much. the red one looks real nice! I'd love to have it if available!

Just a question, will the odour coming from the crab or the waste from the crab be strong since when you put it in a bowl and in an office?

not really tat bad as i imagine. on the contrary, i find tat the odour from the uneaten pellets to be stronger. anyway, i change water daily b4 i leave.

thanks, lets share the lobang here if we happen to see any.

some updates on the crab.






not really sure if vamp can adapt to full aquatic setting but office has concern on stagnant water.

btw, it has eaten a sakura shrimp.

Hi bro, they are not fully aquatic and wouldnt be able to adapt well to such an environment. It is impossible for a terrestrial crab to live totally in water.

yeah. 1/3 water is more than enough for these guys.

yes, tats what i think also. but would not want to challenge the mgnt, skali lose my job.
anyway, i was quite worried abt it and made my way back to office today just to see.
looks like it is quite happy and found a hiding place under the drift wood.
the moment i throw in pellets, it rushed out to feed! gobbled up a sakura in just 5mins yesterday and hungry again today! really eating non stop!
