Munching on some cholla wood, the tough guy we lovingly renamed 'the streak', went shell shopping today but hasn't seemed to find anything he likes. The shell he's in is the one I rehomed him to when I found him post molt. A bit too big.

Idk how I am just seeing this but this is so legit. Is the spray enamel safer than silicone or did you use silicone after? Have the crabs managed to get into the mesh wiring behind the cork bark board at all?

Is the entire top half open, or do you have it closed in? Just wondering how the humidity keeps. :)
