Yes, I believe several HCA members have actually posted some pics of their tats with that hammock.

It's a favorite hang out for my crabs. They've knocked all the shells off, but they still continue to bask in the hammock, especially when I put a shrimp tail there!

I have one of those in the 29g and the guys love it. It's gotten quite "saggy" since being installed earlier this year -- large fat-legged Big Enzo enjoys hanging out on it and has definitely 'sprung" it! I'll have to go in and tighten up the fastenings 'cause it's now "U" shaped :lol: .

I have one too but have never seen one of my crababies in it. I use it as a shell shop too for the bigger shellsImage

Is there a way up to it?

I was just wondering the same thing.

Looks like there may be some kind of stick on the far side...I can see something like that on the bottom and just a small part of it coming off of the top

Ha! Didn't even notice that! Or maybe close enough to the coco wall that the hermies can climb up that way:)

There was a piece of driftwood that went into it, now I revamped the whole thing because I added more sub, now there are 9in on one side and 7& half on other and there is a net they can get to it by and it's fairly close to the ground. I'm waiting on my crocheted ladder from etsy to run from it to the other one across the whole tank in the air, or at least that's the idea

Sounds good! I think they will eventually discover it :) They will become more and more curious. Mine didn't like the reptile vine for a good bit then all of a sudden one night I saw 2 hermies just sitting on it like it was an old comfy chair Image silly hermies.
