New to Hermies

Hello, I'm Bri, and I'm kinda new at crabbing! I have a 30 gallon tank and started with three small hermies. It seemed a little lonely in there, and now I've got seven. :shock: One surface molted two days after I got him, and he's hardening nicely, so hopefully he'll make it okay. (He's in 10 gallon ISO.) This site really helped me get ready before I even got my first one, and probably saved my molter's life, so I decided to join. They're all in the "small" category now, and I'm hoping we can get to "jumbo" together!

(I think they're all PP hermies, but have no idea on genders as of yet...)

Kermit, Grumpy, Tiny, Hodgepodge, Eugene (molter), Babette, and Buster!

While I am internet and computer savvy, I honestly have no idea how to post pictures. Believe me, I have pictures. :P I'll try scanning through the FAQ again, though, if you all are really interested. They're adorable to me anyway! :lol: I did have my sister post a neat video of my little Buster switching shells on the HCA facebook page though.
