If you have crabs like that, you need to find new women!!

I took the one I posted. I redid my fish tank when the last Discus Died (poor quality strains) and I got 4 Red claw crabs to kick off the tank. They are funny critters but the little bas....er.......well they keep trying to get out of the tank. so I 'Southern Engineered' an escape proof method, copious amounts of electrical tape and Cling wrap. Aint pretty but it works and I've not found any of of them OUT of the tank. Dosnt stop them from trying though. It's entertaining. Trying to get a time lapse of them attempting the escape.... but I lost my tripod with an argument with a train and well. I cant get another one til far later down the road... so.... if theres interest I'll post a topic on the tank. might be an interesting distraction. Thinking of starting an aquarium maintenance Company. I have a few contacts who have plenty of contacts in Drs. offices so. That might be fun too.
