The entire tank is covered in white speckles of crab meat, it looks like a snow globe exploded.White specks EVERYWHERE!

These are crappy pics, but I had to share because of the HUGE mess my puffers made today. Today I gave them the body of a crab, the part that is left over after they had eaten the legs.

Re: Messy Eaters!
I guess some is, I buy raw. I make sure it says something to that affect, however I can be fooled. It can be tricky depending upon the season most that you find could be raw or it all can be cooked. Usually I'll ask the seafood department people.eieio wrote:isn't grocery store crab cooked?
I have a very hard time finding raw crayfish...the best I can do sometimes is lightly steamed.

Re: Messy Eaters!
You can certainly ask, the worst they can say is no. If not you must have a brave friend/ family member lol
It's amazing how easy maintenance is. If done regularly and thoroughly
