My first time was given to this chilli crab!!

DISSECTION i mean...










The dorsal view of the crab











the ventral view of the crab, that's where the first touch are laid =p

woops... will be getting more aggresive..










after removal of the shell, the two gills are quite apparent










that's not the 'meat' but gills













mouthparts, antenna, and pleopods removed successfully

After about 1.5 hours of crab anatomy analysis

Dissection DONE =)
