That's good news across the board: tank upgrade, new crabby kids, successful shell swaps out of those nasty paint jobs and everyone's getting along! Of course, you know the HCA mantra: :worthless: !

Love that resin mangrove stump! The stump is currently "on hiatus" in my tank with a cork round in its place. I like to stick artificial flowers in the top of the stump (and the cork round) for the guys to hide in (plus it "pretties up" the tank with color).
