Cleaning time

Post by spidtat » Mon May 31, 2010 5:23 pm

Cleaning time always seems to bring the best chances for pictures so I thought I would snap a few and share them with you all. Keep reading to the bottom and I got a special surprise for you :)

Now for the bonus :) As we were cleaning and adding some new substrate we came across one of my Straws that was freshly molted. He seems to be doing fine and is isolated but I had to get a picture to share with everybody

Unfortunately during this clean we did find 2 that had passed during their molt and one of them was one of my Ruggies so now I have to find him a species buddie again :)

Thanks for the compliments and good vibes, out of curiosity I checked on the molter tonight in his ISO tub and he was out walking around with little bits of exo around him :D He is still a little pale but at least I know I did not mess him up to bad by finding him :)
