Finally a Pom Pom Crab!!!

my pompom is finally coming out during the day! i rescaped a bit and i suppose it took to the new cave created! i also found out that "it" is a she! she now has a big batch of eggs...but even better her other pompom!! i cant believe how fast the anenome grew and split!

sorry for the bad pic. but she retreated into her cave when she saw the camera!


she is also quite hilarious. to celebrate her showing herself during the day i tried to get her some food to watch her eat. i loaded it into the pipette and lowered it towards her. she SCREAMED out of the cave and started beating the crap out of the pipette. i was howling with laughter. she is so feisty. i think i might name her after my gf (but dont tell my gf that!)

We have one and really enjoy it. Yes, it took about 2 weeks to see it again the first time but now we see it a bit more regularly. We saw it out during feeding a couple of mornings ago and it was very quick but kept coming back out again.

Ours has molted twice in 7 weeks and still has both anems. I paid only $20 for ours and consider it well worth it. We have a 70 gallon tank and tons of rocks and little caves for it to hide in.
