UPdate:Biff the crab

[witchiepoohs]

Hiyah and a big "Thank You" :thm: To all here who took the time to help, and also you guys who did a bit of research on my behalf... really, Cheers folks!

Here's the news- "Biff" the Red clawed crab lives! Ha ha ha! I followed everyones instructions, he now lives in a brackish tank treated with marine salt and various other liquids for chlorine removal etc. His food now includes veggies wafers, dried shrimp etc. He has a plant to climb and a basking area out of water. He seems happier alright and much more active. It's all good.
Here's a few pics of Biff that I took yesterday- don't mind the stones colour, I had a bag of them for the boys fish, so I used them.

I just have one question- what other fish etc. is he compatible with? you know; that he won't fight with or eat! Or will he be happy on his own?

Thanks again people!

Nice work. I'm glad to hear your crab is doing better. How about a shot of the tank?

Hiyah Vicious Fish!

Cool name! My camera died, but I will defo get you a picture soon. There's no point taking it on my phone because it will be a blur.

I hope now your not just curious because of the extremely gross colour choices for the purple plastic foliage( apparently crabs destroy real plants) and the stones! LOL! Yes it's colourful alright, and no I'm not colourblind, I have to keep telling myself it's the kids choice! There's a light in it too... I didn't turn it on when I took the photos 'cos guess what colour it is? no?... (cringe) it's blue! Ah GAD! now all my secrets are out.

I'm an Artist you know, so there is no excuse. It surely is a "technicolor" nightmare and yes I will get a photo, even so. The kids love it though.
I'm afraid to get a backing poster for it, God knows what that would look like, LOL! at the moment you can see the tiles on the wall behind it, maybe I'll play it safe and get a black one, Though the boys want blue, oh hell!

Anyway, I'll flag you when I get sorted!
