I finally had a good dream ab the crabs!!

There was or had been a female purple pincher in the tank (but she wasnt there) and she and Gurkle had two babies!! One was a pinkish tan crab, and the other was a very very pale tan. They had shells that matched closely to their colorings so I named them Peaches & Cream respectively. I think Peaches was a boy, but I know Cream was a girl and slightly smaller

Anyway Gurkle LOVED them 😭 he was teaching them to climb in the dream and he would climb something and then come down and watch the babies try and idk how but I just knew he loved them 😭 he would watch them with such intense focus and interest and when they would inevitably fall (as they were learning) he would run to them and use his feeler antennae to make sure they were okay 😭

They, like their dad, kept trying to break out of the tank and succeeded at least once bc I saw them climbing on the curtains in my room agdgdgd little shits

I remember thinking in my dream "damn I wonder why people say hermit crabs can't reproduce successfully in captivity bc these fuckers sure grew FAST" like they had went from teeny tiny larvae looking things to full blown 3/4in and 1/2in sized crabs FAST

Idk where Scupa was in the dream, but I remember being proud of Gurkle that he got to be the one to fertilize the clutch sgdgdgdg weird that there was only 2 though

Anyway Peaches and Cream were like best buds in the dream and always following each other around and playing together when they weren't following their dad sgdggdgd it was too cute

#marquilla #now the rest of my dream was ehhhh bc i was watching a horror movie for some reason and it was very vivid but also kinda funny #but the part with the crabs was soo cute 😭😭 i think Cream was my favorite of the pair dgdgdgdg idk why but she was so cute little babyyy #peaches was a mischievous little shit i do remember that and cream was like oh okay yay :) ab whatever he was doing as she followed sgdggdg #but gurkle was such a good dad 😭 he would sit with them at the food bowl even if he wasnt hungry so he could make sure they ate well #it was just the cutest thing especially bc most dreams ab them are like theres many crabs in the tank and theyre LARGE like giant conch #shells but the tank size never increases in the dream it's always my 40gal (i think thats the size idr)
