A Late Introduction

Post by Bounceraff » Sat May 02, 2015 1:52 am

Alright, here it is, finally. I've got a nice little 10-gallon (plans to upgrade during the summer once I'm out of college) with 2 little boys named: Washington "Wash" Leif, and Waldo Hydeawae. (see what I did there?) I've had them since February 9th, 2015.

There used to be a third little one named Bruno who unfortunately passed less than a short week after bringing them home. R.I.P. I didn't expect to take it as hard as I did honestly.

Wash and Waldo are both PP's, as was Bruno, and have very different personalities! Wash is an adventurer, he explores the tank top to bottom at least 3 times over anytime I move something to a different place or add a new climbing toy. Waldo is the exact opposite, he likes the small, dark and cozy hiding spots and if he finds out that I know where he is at he will stop at nothing to find a new one haha.

Wash just returned from his first molt that lasted 50 days and Waldo went down for his first a little over a week ago.

Well, here's the pictures of the Crabitat and the little guys:

Thanks!! I'm looking forward to upgrading in the summer so I can get bigger pools and have more running room.
