I like shell changes too! I've got nothing against them molting, but I wouldn't want it to happen too frequently.

I am proud of myself though! at least I can recognise a molted crab! there was one in the crabitat ar Petco, and yes I did make sure to tell them it was molted and NOT dead... I'm still trying to get them to add 2 types of water in though....

The pet shops here don't give a damn about the two types of water, and some don't even bother refilling the dishes when they have dried up... :(

My hermit crab Neptune changed shells at least three times a day for a week between two shells, a brown turbo and a babylonia shell!
