You are from Alaska! You should be used to it!
Notice the young female apprentices in the table pic.
They pick them up and throw them in the "TANK"
They are still "scared" of live crabs, but are too small to handle tongs!

Tuna,
Try to get a hold of some (LIVE) Atlantic blue crabs,
They are NOT, I repeat NOT reef safe!
BTW they don't have hairy legs.
They eat anything they can.

TOURKID · 03/28/2006, 02:59 PM

mille- please do!! its possible mi isent that far

REEFKEEPA · 03/28/2006, 03:12 PM

This has gotten out of hand!
Let's just say that some reefers enjoy feeding certain crustaceans to their family and friends.

Cutiewitbooty · 03/28/2006, 03:53 PM

lol

mille239 · 03/28/2006, 08:11 PM

TOURKID (or anyone for that matter) ever seen this guy before? (more importantly, ever cook one up)? he's about the size of a quarter, and has been with me over 3 yrs, (last time I bought any live rock) yet this past weekend was the first time I saw him

Cutiewitbooty · 03/28/2006, 09:04 PM

I got a crab i'm trying to get up to cooking size too

He has about doubled his size in 3 months lol

OnTheReef · 03/28/2006, 09:14 PM

ROFL! That just keeps getting better and better, you have my vote for thread of the month!

sloshes · 03/28/2006, 09:26 PM
