    Lost my last surviving horseshoe crab

    Hey Coop are sure its dead or did it molt?? I thought for sure mine was a goner till about a week later it came crawling from behind the L/R. I think after they molt they burrow down until the new shell hardens some (just a guess) if not sorry for the loss.
