I have had my crabs for about 4 months. They eat and bathe as they have from the beginning, but they have both stopped changing shells. For about a week in the beginning of September they battled over a particular shell, then they stopped changing shells altogether. Is something wrong?

Hi
Make sure you have a lot of other shells so they don't have a shell fight. It's basicly 3 shells per crab but more is a good idea. They can be happy with their shells but you can never be too safe. Try and buy some more shells if you don't have enoegh.
