Message: <blockquote data-quote="PamCz" data-source="post: 44793" data-attributes="member: 3784">Thanks!  Yes...way better pic with the top off.<img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" />I wish I knew what sex it is...but I don't intend to mess with it for a while.  That is one aggro T!  It's a little unnerving to have a T that is (depending on the individual) so evil! hahaha  Are you familiar with Jon3800's vids on YouTube?  I LOVE them & have seen all 135 of them...very informative on ALL things re: T's, especially observing T behavior.  He's a big nerd (in my house, that's a compliment! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />), and his vids are invaluable, IMO, to the new T keeper.  Anyway, the reason I ask is because I have a video I can point you to of the usual crazy-mean temperament of the P. cancerides.  Check this out: [MEDIA=youtube]MdkgQmBqpbI[/MEDIA]  Go to 2:00 in & watch.  He has three specimens (Isabella, Jezebel & a new MM, David) & the third one, David, actually charges Jon. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite9" alt=":eek:" title="Eek!    :eek:" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":eek:" /> Rears up, climbs out of the enclosure, runs down the bedspread right towards him!  lol!!  I decided that very day I would have one of these at some point. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite8" alt=":D" title="Big Grin    :D" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":D" />  I find their "evil" attitude endearing, somehow.  I must be insane. <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite12" alt="o_O" title="Er... what?    o_O" loading="lazy" data-shortname="o_O" /> lol Enjoy the vid!</blockquote>
