Giant Red Legged Hermit Crab molt

[Leroy]

My giant red legged hermit crab molted and here's the shell. Cleans up the glass bottom of my refugium sections. When there's not enough waste for it to feed up on then it chows down on silversides. It's shell is approx. 4" wide. Purdy thing ain't it?

I had one but much smaller, I liked it a lot but it turned vicious it would attack any thing it could catch.

Pretty cool Leroy. I always find it really amazing that they can get out of their old shells and leave them in 1 piece.
