Just explained to Google why I don't want to learn about eating my pets after I just bought them a water dish lol

[image ID: a Google user survey asking "How related is the recommended search 'types of crabs' to your other recent searches of 'hermit crab water dish' and 'reptile rock bowl'?" followed by an example of the recommended search content. This example is a Youtube video thumbnail depicting a bowl of freshly cooked crabs and is titled "13 Types of Crabs and How to Eat Them, According to Seafood Experts". End ID]

Take the memory, leave the shell! Watch what happens when we return seashells to the beach & marine hermit crabs!

Seashells are so important to beaches for a whole host of reasons.

🐚Over-shelling can affect hermit crabs because it reduces the availability of suitable shells for them to inhabit. Hermit crabs rely on empty shells of other creatures for protection and shelter. When there are too few shells available, hermit crabs may be forced to inhabit inadequate shells & pollution as homes, which can hinder their growth and make them more vulnerable to predators and environmental stressors. This can ultimately impact their survival and reproductive success.

🐚Shells provide homes or attachment surfaces for algae, sea grass, sponges, coral and a host of other microorganisms.

🐚Animals such as decorator crabs and octopus use shells as camouflage and many fish use shells as hiding places to avoid predators.

🐚Shells help to stabilize beaches and anchor seagrass.

🐚Shells are used by shorebirds to build nests.

🐚When shells break down, they provide nutrients for the organisms living in the sand or for those that build their own shells. (Shells are a major source of calcium.) I’m a firm believer in when we know better, we do better. I once shelled, and then when I learned all of this, I returned all shells that were not sprayed with a clear varnish to the beach & watched the marine hermit crabs go wild changing shells that were so needed!

The Stages of Pet Fish Owners

Pinkie: "Seriously considering having a pet shrimp." Me: "Wasn't it going to be a crab?" Pinkie: "I just want an aquarium! I don't care what's inside. It could be a coconut for all I care. I just want to take care of the water."

Question for those who are educated in crab care! Is howie the crab well cared for? Like I’m sure her mom has nothing but good intent, but walking her on a leash seems a little suspect to me. She is old for her species so her care is most likely immaculate, I just don’t know much about caring for pet crabs so I wanna make sure I’m not consuming something potentially harmful

while i was sick i had an idea and wrote down the following note for not-sick crabs: "pickle boy sun"

so i present to you

pickle boy sun

(based on the brooklyn 99 meme of course)

when he's not working, Sun enjoys experimenting with new dishes! one of those is his pao cai jar, a Sichuanese pickle brine that can last for years if taken care of properly. Sun's is almost 20 years old and it was a gift from his late Boss before he passed.

bonus! when it's Sun's turn to prepare family meal at the restaurant:

Moon doesn't like the pickles (he doesn't like sour things)

Prompt 197

“Guys look, I got us pet rocks!” 

“That’s nice- Danny, why are the rocks moving?” 

“Ectoplasm. Obviously. They eat bad emotions, isn’t that cool?!” 

“They aren’t going to get that big though, right? I mean, we’re moving to the countryside but still.”

“I mean, they shouldn’t? Dang, maybe I should have asked Dora more questions…”

When the funny crab souls game turns into a lesson on how complacency in the face of great cruelty actively contributes to said cruelty being spread, and that if we do nothing the selfishness and greed of people in power will eventually ruin the planet one way or another

Meet the Indonesian hermit crab!! While they may look similar to other species of terrestrial hermit crab, they have one distinct feature; that incredible pincer! All hermit crabs have one large mating pincer and one small, however the Indo crab takes it to a new extreme! The mating pincer is extremely large, short, and round. Even their name, brevi- meaning short and -manus meaning hand, describes their epic feature. Indos are one of the larger species of terrestrial hermit crabs, capable of reaching leg-spans of 6 inches.

Unlike other terrestrial hermit crabs which stick near the beaches, Indo crabs are normally found under the leaves and logs of the forest floor, only returning to the ocean to mate or occasionally feed.
