Crablog

There was so much activity last night in the big tank. Tune was all over the place and a couple others came out too. That little PP who's been running around that I'm still not sure who it is was out and REALLY active, then Spaz came out later. In the big hut were Kermit (who I've not seen much of lately) and Beaker hanging out. In fact, they've done something pretty funny. Lately when I'm trying to figure out where everyone's hiding I've noticed that the doorway into the big hut has been blocked by FB, from the inside. Apparently whoever has been hiding in there during the day doesn't want company. Now it looks as though perhaps Beaker and Kermit have a thing going on????? Hmmm, Beaker is a boy but we haven't determined yet anything about Kermit's sex.

Oscar was still sitting in the window s/he created yesterday. S/he still hasn't made it up to the surface but to know that s/he's moving around now and digging is a pretty good indication that the molt is finished and s/he'll be topside soon.

So, the count there was I actually saw 6 of the crabs moving around. That is an all time high. There is still the missing Rug in the big tank and I just hope that's a molt in progress and not an actual missing crab, as well as 2 more PPs that are still MIA (Hermie and the other little PP Tinkerbell or TigerLily).

Didn't notice whether or not anyone touched the cheeseburger.

Seemed there was a pretty good bit of activity over in the smaller tank too. The humidity has been high in there as it's such a small tank and everything is damp in there. It's been hovering near 90% so I decided last night to take off the glass lid for a while and only leave on the screen lid. After a short period it dropped down to 80% and then I put the glass lid back on but only over half the top to allow for some more circulation than before. This morning it was still hovering at 80% so maybe we'll get some more activity in there now.
