Crabs are my absolute favorite types of animals ever. Please do more crab / crustacean content. Specially id love something about terrestial crabs. I own few Metasesarma bidens, and have owned some geosesarmas. I just find fully terrestial crabs amazing creatures. :D
@@thetraveler4493 there is wild caught crabs where they don't put mercury in (and there might be some farms that don't have mercury in them niether? I'll have to look that up) And micro plastics is not only in sea food, its in our drinking water, our land animals, and might be on our vegetation too
When I was in college, there was a garage for a private house on the shore road in West Haven, CT that had a Lobster shell mounted on the front above the door that was easily more than 4 feet in length. The Lobster must have been very old when it was caught. I can't imagine how much it weighed, but I suspect if they ate it, I suspect the meat may have been tough, but then I don't know. Thinking about it a bit more, it might have been only 3 feet in length, but the claws were each as big as a dinner plate. Huge creature!
Another amazing video!!! I like that your adding in more then just fish lately (don't get me wrong I'm a fish keeper and will ALWAYS like fish videos) it's just nice to mix things up occasionally! Thank you for all your hard work ❤️
Correction...... coconut crabs and Smaller crabs with shells for protection are two different species........they are not the same.... though they both live and thrive in same environment....
Are most, *if* not all, of these are edible? I’ve seen google articles and RUclips videos of the giant isopods being eaten. *Would* love to try eating a giant isopod.
I caught by hand slipper lobster and what they call spine lobster when I live in Kwajalein Atoll for two years. They had no big pinchers but they were a good size and tasted great.
I think you would do an excellent job doing five threatened or endangered animals of California. Ridgways Rail, California Red-Legged Frog, Salt-Marsh Harvest-Mouse, El Segundo Blue (butterfly), and Golden Trout are good picks. I sometimes share your videos with people and this would be a good one for CA conservation.

*The world records for longest crustaceans are Shrimp 41 cm (16 in) Lobster 64 cm (25.2 in) Crayfish 80 cm (31.4 in.) I didn't include crab in the longest because they measure them by width but a crab 311 cm (122 in.)*
Many years ago I was stationed in Guam, and my executive officer told us about the time he was younger and got a bit too inebriated. He actually tried to arm wrestle with a very large coconut crab. Cost him two fingers.
Thank you for mentioning the Tasmanian giant crayfish, Astacopsis gouldi. As this species is probably the biggest freshwater crustacean in the world, growing to a length of 80 cm and a weight of 6 Kg, I had hoped this species would have been included in main part of the video, and not just as a single picture at the end.
When I was a kid we did a field trip to an oceanic museum and man I remember seeing a crap that was almost five feet tall. Now as I got older and deadliest catch became a thing I thought well there’s no such thing as a crab that big. Just watched a documentary that showed a crap from the deep waters of japan and yup there is such a thing as a five foot tall crab.
Bro, you literally have a niche all your own. Every single video you make is just beyond exciting to click on in my opinion. You asked a couple videos ago if we'd like to see different content, and the truth is, you make content about anything and your fans will be there
sorry, a totally random question: I'm not a dog lover, I've had friends which were dogs though. What is Arnie really like - I mean he looks so adorable in the selected clips, but is he actually as sweet natured as he seems?
Before even watching this I was thinking Coconut crab, giant isopod, and Japanese spider crab. I wonder if anyone was able to guess all five without watching the video.
While it wasn’t as heavy there was a lobster caught in Cornwall England that was 1.26 meters it was found inside a harbour wall as it was being taken apart
The American lobster lives farther south than New Jersey. They are seen here in Delaware by divers. Their numbers are not great but they are here. During the spider crab part you said they eat corpses that float to the bottom of the ocean???
I love how you put the weights into perspective using equally as abstract specimens 😆

Tasmanian giant crabs are pretty big weighing more than 18kgs. I was surprised to see one in real life didn’t realise how massive they were

I love crustaceans a lot. So weird and whacky underwater bugs :)
And 🦀, 🦞 😋
Giant Isopods are so cute.
i thought they were quite cute in a weird way
its a lyfestyle
no they are not, they haunt my dreams if i ever see one i am going to mars

iv never seen a corpse "float to the bottom of the ocean" good video made me hungry
Me too 🍴🤤🍴🦞🦀
fun fact for those that dont know, technically none of the "crabs" in this video are crabs. nature is dope
13 feet wide and 40+ lbs?! That’s scary af bro imagine seeing that in person
Imagine crossing them with the coconut crabs .
Our local Aquarium used to have them. They are freaking HUGE. Very Creepy too.
I just found your site and it a keeper. You are doing a great job producing too. A+
Correction...... coconut crabs and Smaller crabs with shells for protection are two different species........they are not the same.... though they both live and thrive in same environment....

Thanks for the support Nick, will do :)

Is it some kind of inside joke that the comparison is always some crazy ass animal that I don't know the size of as well? Lmao
Much Crustacean love my, man
They could all be infinitely sized , they don't stop growing, they just get too weak to break out of it's exoskeleton

yes I am, near Bristol. Thanks for the support I really appreciate it :)
@@TsukiCove insert ship shape pun here! Really love all the biotope stuff, very educational!
fun fact(idk if he said this lol): Spider Crabs dont attack humans(infact, they are friendly to humans)
That's true, i used to play with them when i was a kid since i saw them everyday like a stray cats roaming around lol
Wood louse, rolley polley, pill bug; these land isopods have so many names.
1:41
What kind of person would have nightmares about something so cute?
what about a video on top 5 barbs for a community tank?
You’re my favourite RUclipsr!
Thanks Mr Catfish that means a lot :)
Why are coconut crabs so light for their size?
What about Tasmanian giant crayfish Jeremy wade went there and found one bigger than a lobster

Did you get hungry too watching this. By the time it got to Alaskan king crab I was starving!
I live in New Brunswick. We had a 20 foot blue American lobster on Grand Manan island in a school.
Can you do too five smallest crustaceans next 😎😎😎😎

1:44 was pretty funny. You say that and guy gets bit haha
Guess he just wanted to burrow
Wow!
These crabs are crazy!
in the marines, they fed us those rollie poleys isopods, and called it steak and lobster. It tasted like you think
Y so underrated
The Tasmanian Crab was even featured in Dark Waters by Jeremy Wade
Gonna need a bigger dish of clarified butter
Another crustacean idea would maybe be most colorful..? species like the candy crab, and pom pom crab are pretty neat
"Corpses that float to the bottom of the ocean" holy shit....
sorry, a totally random question:
I'm not a dog lover, I've had friends which were dogs though.
What is Arnie really like - I mean he looks so adorable in the selected clips, but is he actually as sweet natured as he seems?
I guarantee you that to the people he loves he is the sweetest ever.
Some people believe that coconut crabs ate Amelia Earhart
yeah i read that while i was researching, it's a crazy story
How can a crab be a desired and expensive delicacy and be running rampant at the same time?
When I was a kid, my teacher taught me to pronounce "Crustaceans" as "Crust-Asians"😂😅
The isopod is one freakish shit. Daaamn.
Largest prehistoric freshwater fish? Mawsonia deserves some recognition
Before even watching this I was thinking
Coconut crab, giant isopod, and Japanese spider crab.
I wonder if anyone was able to guess all five without watching the video.
can you talk in the next video of invasive especies about the grass carp and the asiatic clam
You should make a video about freshwater shrimp species, one of favorite aquarium inverts.
Girthy crunchy boys
Hello mr.dangerous coconut crab, have you met my cooking pot yet?
well well well you forgot about the Tasmanian fresh water = yabbie craw fish or lobster ! a bit rare and hard to find but HUGE is a word !
400 meters above sea level and up to 6 kg ! live for 60 years and more ! no predators on them jus humans !
1:31
LOL
I love that costume deal you die there.
Best content
good job tsuki
tasmanian king crab grow to a massive 8 kg , tasmania fresh water lobster grow up to 1 meter long and over 6 kg
No mention of the NZ Pack horse Crayfish ? They grow to up to 15 kiliograms
You should make a video on desert oasis animals or more most dangerous fish videos either way very cool video.
I just wabt to say, I love crabs
Yesss keep these coming mate 😍😍
There's footage of the giant Tasmanian freshwater crayfish on Jeremy Wade's River Monsters.
The Japanese Spider crab is the largest Crustacean in the sea & on the planet. Which leaves the Coconut Crab 2nd.
Joseph Stallin ? Try StAlin.
Craff is life, craff is love
Hi! Maybe the mantis shrimp is a nice feature for a video? :)
As far as I'm aware the world's largest lobster lives in Tasmania's freshwater streams....much bigger than the American lobster.
I had one of these coconut crabs on my door gate in the Philippines. I touched while unlocking the gate it scared me big time
MORE invasive fish pls
You should add the average human hand for scale compared the the smaller animals
I love that dog, he a good boi I can tell
5 Largest Water type crab based Pokemon.
YESSS!!!!! LETS GOOOOOOO!!!
Maybe you can also make a series on marine mammals and reptiles
Just give me butter and lemon, I'll eat this list lol
Great stuff!
I don’t get how you only 34k subscribers
Do a video of the other three, I am not familiar with those, these 5 are all well known
This made me hungry lol
I was expecting to see the Giant Tasmanian Crayfish.
watching this with my hermit crab rn
try doing a video on Salmonidae family
Crustions are fascinating but I ain't going near them, they trigger the same response as my fear of insects especially the big ones just nope
my 3 favourites are kings crustacean, charing crustacean and st pan crustacean
While it wasn’t as heavy there was a lobster caught in Cornwall England that was 1.26 meters it was found inside a harbour wall as it was being taken apart
Fun fact, rolly pollies and wood lice are also crustaceans. I.E- every crustacean is a bug.
This video is fun
This robber crab is probably big enough and bold enough to destroy a little child?
The American lobster lives farther south than New Jersey. They are seen here in Delaware by divers. Their numbers are not great but they are here. During the spider crab part you said they eat corpses that float to the bottom of the ocean???
Me: Oooo science!
