Struggling Reef Addict
I haven't been here a long time, but in those 5 months, I have seen a lot of people asking about crab parts and molting inverts in their tank. While it is often explained that molt can look a lot like the invert in question, we have yet to really see any pictures of how life like the molt can appear :grumble:...So, as a service to any future invert owners with molt questions, below is a leg molt from my hermit that I removed from the tank tonight.
Besides my molt example I also wanted to show how big my crab was getting :shock:...As you can see, just one leg is 4 quarters long (just short of 4 inches :shock: ) Also, just for comparison are two pictures below of when he first took this shell and his current size :mrgreen:
It's crazy how before he was just barely sticking out of his shell and now he can almost cover up the whole thing :bounce:
