yups..pink flower crab....i think so...its a fiddler crab...but anyways...where to find the other kinds of flower crab? just dont like red crab or mud fiddler crab...very colourless..X.XOriginally Posted by lucasjiang
Needs to be more specific or provide a picture, but I can't remember seeing many pink crabs.
Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and he will drink beer while getting sunburnt.
Er, so you mean a pink fiddler crab? fiddler crab is not the same as flower crab. flower crab is the very big one that we eat, fiddler crab is the one with an enlarged claw on males. For fiddler crabs, they do come in time to time at c328, but they dont come in very often. The last time i saw them were about 2 months ago, you can try your luck there.
ohh....coz last time my bro bought it at the shop beside c328...but that time i not fascinated in crabs yet..and now i try to find..but dont have...i go to c328 occasionally but only see mud fiddler crab and red crab in those buckets X.X looking for a colourful crab X.XEr, so you mean a pink fiddler crab? fiddler crab is not the same as flower crab. flower crab is the very big one that we eat, fiddler crab is the one with an enlarged claw on males.

just that my bro's have a big claw
the red crab is red-claw crab, sesarma bidens. The so-called mud fiddler crab is actually not a fiddler crab, it is a freshwater crab (fiddler crabs are brackish water or salt water) scientific name is heterothelphusa fatum. The crab your brother bought is the horn eyed ghost crab, ocypode ceratophthalmus, it requires saltwater, as its natural habitat is at shorelines. If you want a colourful crab that is easy to keep, i will recommend vampire crabs. It stays small and does not require saltwater and is quite colourful.
ohh...no wonder that 'flower crab' died....X.X my bro didnt put it in saltwater...but where can i find the vampire crab? o.o sounds interesting X.X
err..just wondering about my red clawed crab...i read that vampire crabs r sold in c328 - the same place i bought my red crab..could it be i mistook my red clawed crab but it was a vampire crab? never seen a vampire crab before.....
my crab looks something like this:

that is a red claw crab. Can be kept in freshwater for limited period of time, best kept in brackish water.
ohhh...X.X then do u have vampire crab? if yes..can tell me where to buy? searched for the name on google...looks quite nice..
Saw Aquastar in Yishun selling Vampire Bicolor, similar to vampire, but with yellow instead of orange on the shell. Hope you did not fully submerse the crab in water without land area, they live muh of their life on land, or at least most of the crabs sold are.

...my cca was going there next week...didnt want to go...but now that you said they're selling vampire crab....IM DEFINITELY GOING xD thanx for your information
