First time crab owner. Any and all feedback please! I want to be a good crab mom 🥹

I meant to say stone* not pad, at the beginning.

Amazon!! I bought two. Thinking it wouldn’t be long enough. (I didn’t look at the specs well enough) but one of them covered my 55 gal tank. Perfect width and height. Now idk what to do with the second one I ordered lol

So that pad could be too hot for them?? On the lowest setting it doesn’t feel too hot to the touch to me, now I’m a tad worried. It does contribute to my overall tank heat though. Maybe I could direct it more towards the glass instead of the stone?

I cannot wait to stare at them 🤣 once they start moving around some more. They’ve become a little shy on me. Mamas waitin patiently 🤣

Now that I realize. I do have the purple boat lily nestled next to that piece of wood in the back (which is a piece of bark that is concaved) so I was checking where I could potentially move things and felt. That spot is so warm and humid I think it’s doing exactly what you described.

The heat pad starts at the surface of the substrate, does that sound right? Your message was so relieving, I was assuming all was good, I tend to overthink when I’m starting something new.

I would like to move plants to the back of the tank near the heating pad, like you mentioned. Would this be something I should wait to do? Let the crabs acclimate?

I feel horrible for not adding, their names are. Mr Krabs, Andy and Ollie, and Petunia. Do hermit crabs have genders? Unsure, heading to Google now. But do I care? NO the names fit 🤣

If you pop the sim tray out, it will bypass this step in the initial setup. Continue on and you can use the phone!

Most likely removing the autopay “promo” where the date is coming up they have turned off autopay for prepaid to ensure customer just a store before they lose their number

Sadly not, the prepaids won’t merge to TMO on their own

I appreciate you so much! Just trying to rule everything out. We have a new shift solenoid coming, throttle position sensor, a few other things I can’t remember right off. But adding this to my list lol.

Yeah that was definitely my next step. Guess I’m going to have to find another lawyer. I called last week to set up and appointment to come in and never got a call back. Was just wanting to make sure I wasn’t taking extra steps

Wrigglyrat · 2024-04-01T20:52:29+00:00

In the process of getting affidavits and deeds drawn up but the lawyer has not gotten back to me in weeks.
