I can relate to your parents - The story goes that you want this kind of pet, and several months later the thrill is gone and it is mom who takes care of the pet. Well - that is the way it generally goes.

Anyway - if you get the Jumbos, you have to have your substrate deep enough for them to dig down for their molt. Generally the larger the crab, the longer it will take for a molt. That said, if you you have plans for a 10 gallon, get the micros. You want to get two or more since they are very social and need company.
