not much videos on vampire crab. always love seeing updates and progress!!
Great video! The one that died might have been in a battle with one of the other males.
I have noticed that other crabs know when they are vulnerable and will try to take them out.
It may have just been old age as well, they only live 2 to 2.5 years so not very long.
They do sometimes have molting issues and die but its usually when they can't fully get out of their old shell.
Thank you! ❤️❤️ Maybe just old, seems she got out from the shell well, perfect copy 🦀
I thought keeping molted exoskeletons in the tank was good as many decapods eat molten shells to regain nutrients.
Hi,
So, where are the babies ?
My crabs had babies last week ! I'm soooo happy :)
Why are they called vampire crabs?
Because of their colour that resembles a vampire ( especially the purple ones ).
