Always hiding in plain sight...

Post by soilentgringa » Mon Mar 02, 2015 8:32 pm

I have 14 PP ranging from tiny/small to large in this 'tat. Last week all but 1 were up and now I can hardly see any!!! I am saving for an upgrade or additional tank-in addition to the 55g (have a 10 gal and a large clear tub). Anyway...here are the crabs I did see...

No. You cannot see me, for I am le carrot...Image

Thanks all! I have to admit I am becoming a bit of a shell hoarder. I think it's amazing that a little creature is hardwired to secrete the substances that form the shells. There are sooo many variations in color, pattern, and shape, I'd love to see time lapse footage of a snail to see the shell growing.
