He wears a light blue polo shirt with a white undershirt, dark blue-purple pants, and a black belt with a golden buckle.
== Personality ==
Mr. Krabs is very cheap, gready and stingy, he is sometimes portrayed as bad (if not worse) than Plankton. His main interest is to have money, even if that means going to extreme lengths like firing his employees or even putting his family in danger. He is also shown to be hypocritrical at times, as seen when he would give advice against stealing, but do it himself. He is also a bit paranoid whenever Plankton does not come to steal the formula. Despite this, Mr. Krabs cares about his loved-ones deep down.
== History ==
Mr. Krabs was born to Victor and Betsy Krabs on the same day as Sheldon Plankton, who would later become his best friend.
As a child, Mr. Krabs grew up in a very pore and broke family, which caused his clothes to be made from rags. Because of this, in school he and Plankton were made fun of and often bullied, Mr. Krabs for being pore and Plankton for being a nerd. One day, Mr. Krabs went to a theme park with Plankton and upon finding a quarter, he instantly loved it, having discovered money for the first time, this would later give him his love for money.
In high school, Mr. Krabs and Plankton would often visit a restaurant called Stinky Burgers, which despite being disgusting, was at the time the only place in Bikini Bottom to get a burger. Even when they went, the owner, Stinky, would tell the two that they had no future and were destined to only be outcasts. This was the final straw for Mr. Krabs and Plankton and they set out to create a burger of their own. After they finished, Stinky Burgers was closed down due to health violations and as such, Mr. Krabs and Plankton started their own restaurant. One day, they gave Old Man Jenkins a burger that gave him food poisoning and the two blamed each other for it. After this, Krabs and Plankton got into an argument that would end their friendship. After Plankton left, Krabs accidentally discovered a new recipe for burgers which he called "Krabby Patties". Upon serving the Krabby Patties to those who bullied him, Mr. Krabs would be loved by those who once tormented him while Plankton was loved even less, beginning his bitter rivalry with his once-best friend.
In adulthood, Mr. Krabs would follow in his grandfather's footsteps and become a pirate, even taking a ship called the "Krusty Krab". However, after finding treasure and having to give it out as shares, he fired his crew and sold his ship. Mr. Krabs would later lie to his grandfather, letting him believe he were still a pirate.
A few years later, Mr. Krabs would become the cook a summer camp called Kamp Koral. While there, he was told by a young camper, SpongeBob, that his food was so good that he should open a restaurant.
Mr. Krabs would spend many years in the Pacific Royal Navy, where he served as a sailor and cook on a cargo ship called the S.S. Diarrhea. While there, his commanding officer, Captain Herb Star, would often chastise the fact that his food was so delicious, believing the navy soldiers would need "steel in their spines". While complying initially, Mr. Krabs refused to serve slop to the sailors, thus being put into the brig, guarded by two ensigns, Jeffrey Tentacles and Harold SquarePants. Upon escaping, the ship was attacked by pirates and because the Captain has fed the crew nothing but moldy sandwich crusts, most were too unwell to fight. After successfully saving stranded sailors and fighting off the pirates, Mr. Krabs was released from the brig and promoted to a sailor. He also had many friends in the navy, including: Iron Eye, Mutton Chop, Torpedo Belly and Lockjaw Jones.
After leaving the navy, Mr. Krabs would marry a sperm whale and with her have a daughter, whom they named Pearl. At some point, his wife would be out of the picture, though it is unknown where she passed away or the two are divorced.
At some point, Mr. Krabs would become the owner of a restaurant with the same name as his old pirate ship. As owner of the Krusty Krab, he would also hire Squidward, SpongeBob and Patrick, the respective children of those he knew in the navy. He would also become the bitter rival of the Chum Bucket, a restaurant owned by Plankton from across the street.
At some point in the future, Mr. Krabs would retire, passing the ownership of the Krusty Krab over to SpongeBob.
