Gulf Marsh Crab Molts and Grows Noticeably Larger

After about a week without sightings, the Gulf marsh crab was rediscovered noticeably larger in the Marine Shore biome, confirming a successful post-introduction molt. He was observed actively feeding on dead seashore paspalum grass detritus, converting tough plant material into presoil poop and crab biomass. This confirms he is successfully finding food and occupying his herbivore-detritivore niche, although long-term persistence and coexistence alongside Atlantic sand fiddler crabs (Leptuca pugilator) remain under observation.
