Thai Micro Crab

[Gill]

THey arrived this morning and I pegged it down to the shop as soon as i Found Out.
They were still in the bag, as once released would be hard to catch.

AS soon as Rob lifted the bag out of the water, they formed a bait ball. so took ages to pry them apart with tweezers to count.

I got a group of 5.

Just found a Claw and Leg, so 1 of them may have been eaten by the endlers.

they won't have been eaten. they may have shed their skin or gotten in a fight. they hide so don't be worried if you can't see any.

Ohhh Yeah, forgot about that. Well I have not seen them since then so hopefully they are just hiding on the underside of the bogwood.

Not aware of any special requirements for them. And the plant is Glosso, just been planted and hope it will take root and make a nice carpet.

the two biggest were on the sponge covering the filter inlet, last night picking off particles of food. They really do look like spiders in the tank
