Fortunately my crabs don't care how the food looks, only how it tastes:

I think I may have an idea. In the pic Toggle's eating my secret ingredient.

 

that's a good pic, what's the orange thing? the dish? Is is a shell? it looks cool.

 

Awww! You caught him with food in his mouth! That's an awesome pic!

 

Thanks! I was surprised that I got that shot -- probably will never get another like it! And yep, the orange thing is a large flat scallop shell. Frank (from Naples Sea Shell Company) put it in as an extra in one of my orders. It makes a great serving platter.

 

hey, i didn't notice that!

 

I finally got the chance:

Food info:

Tuna:
Has protein.

Kibble:
"This kibble is full of foods that are high in zeaxanthin and beta-carotene. Both help hermit crabs regulate their bodily functions as well as increase their exoskeleton coloration. The tannin in the maple leaves will also aid in coloration."

Sounds healthy to me!

 

lol, it does!

As you can see, it's a perfect crabby feast–sliced strawberries topped with fresh caulerpa algae (seaweed) then sprinkled with kelp powder, rose petals and dried bilberries. Yum yum!
