Dead porcelain crab? NO! MOLTED!

This morning I found my porcelain dead on a rock. Then looked better and found another one on the usual spot. They cloned themselves xD aside from jokes its nearly impossible to tell the difference between the molt and the real one!

Mine molted a few weeks ago. I had to make sure it was a molt.


Molts are very interesting.

Incredible. Wonder if there’s a way to preserve them

Thats so cool! Is that a porcelain crab as well?

Yes she is a porcelain. So many crab molts have tricked us. I'll never figure out how they manage to keep the molt so pristine.
