Well, paper test shows she died. I am still blown away how fast it happened. I have had her 3 weeks, 2 of which were in iso. I bathed them when I brought them home and saw no sign of mites, nor do I see any mites in the tank now. Temp is between 73 and 80, depending on how hot the day is and if using the UTH side. Humidity is 80 as well. The only thing I can think is that she ate something bad. One of my crabs is always dragging food around and sometimes I find moldy spots. Otherwise, I just don't know. I bought her at Petco and their tank conditions were really good, except for food selection.

Thank you so much for your advice
