Description:Commercial production of soft crabs depends on capturing crabs that are about to molt, keeping the animals healthy until they molt, and harvesting the soft crabs before their shells have had time to harden. This publication describes the shedding aspect of commercial production with emphasis on the design and maintenance of the shedding systems used to hold hard crabs until they molt. Though the manual presents design recommendations for the submerged rock filtration system, it introduces and describes design criteria for the newer and more powerful fluidized bed and upflow sand filtration systems.
