It passed the 143 days mark (time at which the other one settled)and itīs still a larva.But it is strong and has grown to full size,about an inch,so I expect meta soon.
Reasons for some delay:this survivor was the smallest of itīs group,and it lost the pp5 legs recently.They have regrown though still not to full size.
The larva is molting every 5 days.Last molt shows chelae (claws)well developed in pp1 and pp2.Uropods show about 100 setae.There were about 60 setae previously,so I think that amboinensis larvae donīt "mark time"but keep developing thru subtle stages some specialist will someday describe.
