When I lived in Maryland, about 2 blocks away from the beach, I used to love watching the horseshoe crabs zipping along. There was a series of sandbars and it seemed like the whole area was THE place to be if you were a horseshoe crab. I see a growing number of people starting to bring the horseshoe crab into their tanks and am just curious what kind of addition they make to an aquarium. ie. how cool are they, do they knock rocks over, how fast do they grow, what do you do with them when they get huge? Does anyone have any personal experience? what do you do when the crab outgrows the tank? Some of the ones we used to see were HUGE, like 18 inches I cant imagine that in my sandbed.
