First of all, I would like to say this is a great site I've picked up a lot of information from this message board.
I have a Sally Lightfoot that recently molted, all looked good at first but I have recently noticed that it's missing both of its claws. I'm not sure if it happened during the molt or shortly thereafter.
My question is will the claws regenerate? If so, will it be able to feed itself until then? Should I make it some prosthetic claws?... But, then I'll have to call it "Sally Scissors Claws"
It's been a few days since the tragic accident and seems to be doing okay. Honestly, I really dont like this crab because it picks on (actually, kills and eats) my shrimp, but I dont want it to die a horrible death from starvation.
Also, has anyone had any experience with an agressive Sally Lightfoot? On the advise of my LFS I've been supplementing it with additional food, but it prefers shrimp.
Any ideas will be appreciated.
