Sad news... Just lost my huge 5" Arrow Crab

[Ken]

Hi, how long did you have your arrow crab? Could it be possible a molt and he is still in hiding? Sorry for your loss, it seems like you were quite attached to him/her, comsidering we all had that first animal that we fondly remember of. Regards Ken

Molt is a possibility, but it's pretty hard to hide when you're a 5" arrow crab!

At first I was thinking the same thime, but after close inspection, it didnt appear to be a skin shell and there was not opening, the body was complete and intact. however I still find myself looking all around the back side of the rock work looking for signs of him incase he molted which is unlikely.
