Purple Jade Vampire Crab ( Geosesarma sp. )

Kind tips:

When you buy a B-level individual, you will get a partial one (1-2 legs broken). But these individuals are healthy and will grow back after molting.

The purple jade devil crab is a small, colorful, semi-terrestrial species native to Indonesia. It inhabits forested areas near streams, rivers and ponds. It spends most of its time on land, but is often submerged in fresh water, including when molting.

Purple Jade Devil Crabs, like most crabs, are omnivorous scavengers and sometimes opportunistic hunters. It feeds on filamentous algae and detritus in aquatic and terrestrial tanks, and will readily accept high-quality dry food rich in plant matter. Fresh and dried vegetables are also excellent food sources, as are invertebrates such as insects and worms.

In nature, the golden-eyed and jade-faced devil crab lives among fallen leaves and vegetation. In an aquatic tank it requires ample land area. It won't usually eat healthy plants, but it will usually help keep them clean and may consume dead leaves. Like most crabs, it needs plenty of cover, especially when molting, so it needs plenty of decoration.

1. Female crabs are darker than male crabs and have smaller claws.

2. It is normal for crabs to break their legs to survive when they are stressed. After shelling, severed limbs will regenerate.

3. Although the sub-adults are lighter in color, they are very active. It usually takes about 1-2 times of shedding to become an adult.

Note: In case of stock shortage, we may sell crabs with one leg broken but two crab claws intact, please understand.
