I love it! You did a great job! I really like what you did with the water dishes with the plants in the middle. I might have to steal your idea [emoji6].

After 4 hours I got my hermies moved and resituated in their new tat. This move 15 minutes down the road was actually more stressful than the move through 3 states. Within minutes of being placed in a large Tupperware a fight breaks out. I've never seen them fight! Unfortunately by the time I broke ...

I am not 100% sure, so hopefully someone else chimes in. I think the green is algae from where the light reaches it. I don't think that itself is an issue.

Am I the only one who feels the need to change things around every few mo...

Great news everyone - the drowned god saw fit to save my little E! He resurfaced today and all is well. Seems like I was lucky and fortunate to have noticed the situation. Thanks all for the input and support *claps* Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G891A using Tapatalk Glad he's okay. As for water storage ...

So it's been awhile since I posted so I thought I'd update. My 4 crabs Erza, Gajeel, Nami, and Luffy are doing great! Had all 4 a year and they are growing so quickly! Erza I've had a year and a half, she's been the only 1 to survive from the very beginning of my crabby journey (may the others who d...

Hey y'all! I use suction cup hooks to hold up my nets and other things in my tat, but they always fall down randomly. Do you all use suction cups too or something else? Thanks!
