Hi all, I've been pretty happy with how my velcro crabs are turning out, but I'm wondering about color. Looking at actual crabs in Chico's book, several crabs are almost white, maybe a little gray. I know tan is a popular color... anything else beyond gray and tan?

Can you mottle your tan crabs with permanent markers to give them "cryptic" coloration?Quote:

For in the turtle grass and coral we use a dark green to dark olive color crabs. These are husky little crabs that don't move very fast.
I think they use lots more colors too but those are the ones we seem to see and use in the Mexican Yucatan and Belize.
Cheers. I have the Caribbean Colors sharpie set, so I'll bust out some green and mixed.

I am with Bill on this one. In Belize its tan or olive.
