emmac350 [ 01 Jul 2009, 07:56 am ]
It sounds like they overheated - that's usually what strange fluids leading from them means. Please post all information about your tank conditions in the autopsy section and we can help you figure it out.

But hermies can take from a day up to 3+ months to molt. Check out the ends of his legs and bottom 'tips' of his pinchers for any fresh sharp black nails.
ladybug15057 [ 30 Jun 2009, 10:18 am ]
misspam6 there have been rare times that a hermie can molt in one day when they burrow and come up the next.
emmac350 [ 30 Jun 2009, 10:04 am ]
He has not molted. Molting, even with the tiniest of crabs, takes at least a week or two.
misspam6 [ 30 Jun 2009, 07:56 am ]
