molt week or what??

[derrikd]

i had a molt of a emerald crab, a sally light footed crab, and think my reef lobster.. and i say think cuz i have only had him about a month.. and have never seen a molt before.. some one with experance with him, please let me know. the molt is hollow.. and a total body. the tail claws and midsection. here is a pic of it. what do you all think?? is he still in there. i do not see him that often to get a visiual on him.

either he molted or the old "saw the lobster in half" trick went horribly wrong

 

[derrikd]

thats funny...
so you do not think that something got him?? well that makes me fell better... i thought that is what he did molted...cuz all the others (crustations) are are doing fine.plus i have nothing in there that would do that..

It's definitely a molt. The guy at the lfs showed me one from his big lobster just the other day.
