Many online users probably buy seafood at fresh food supermarkets, especially lively seafood. One would expect that cooking it at home would certainly result in a delicious meal. Recently, on X (formerly Twitter) in Japan, a netizen shared a horsehair crab he saw at the supermarket. It seemed that because of its price, it wasn't selling. The netizen decided to buy it and "raise" it, and this unexpected idea was shared on social media, becoming a fun topic of interest among netizens.
This horsehair crab, which the poster brought back from the supermarket, is now in its third week (as of February 6th). Originally, it was a little listless in the supermarket, but now it is a very energetic horsehair crab and has become the poster's source of joy. Keeping it in a fish tank has also made it full of vitality. Many netizens have praised this horsehair crab for being very cute, and they didn't expect the poster to be so loving as to bring it back to raise, because if it really didn't sell, they don't know what the fate of this horsehair crab would have been. Some netizens also thanked the poster, saying that although it did not return to its hometown ocean, it seems to be living happily here, and the poster rescued it!
Of course, this kind of thing, buying something from the supermarket or market and then raising it, is indeed quite interesting. I can only say thank you to the poster for not killing it; the horsehair crab will thank you. However, I must still warn everyone that the poster has expertise in raising related animals and it is not the case that ordinary people can buy them back and raise them casually!
