Spark is up from his first molt. Color is a bit dull, but he didn't have much of an appetite before going down. Kind of a blueish purple color, but toned down. he is very alert and switched shells upon surfacing (yay!) upon being picked up, rushes of water poured out, proving that Spark has been quite  busy swimming in the 6 hours he's been up:) I am so happy to see my baby has survived, upon arrival home Spark did not move for days, being very lethargic and downcast.

This isn't in tone with your topic, but nice website Frostfire!!! Glad to hear that Spark is okay!:) I remember when you were having troubles with him. I haven't looked at the entire site, but I do hope you can post some pics of the crabs as you give updates.

Thank you Dylan, I am glad he or she is ok too. Pictures of the crabs are currently located under crab profiles. I have more recent ones on my camera I need to take off. I was going to get my first picture of Spark today, but she buried back down. She gorged herself with water last night though, and is fully hardened and his antennas were a flutter, so hopefully he'll be up soon.
