What I do at 11 at night when I'm supposed to be sleeping:

The whole thing, redone! I noticed my sand was a little dry, it looked cluttered, not like a fresh tank looked. So I just said what the heck. And I end up redoing the entire thing.. the hermit crabs are super happy now!!

my biggest crab Drogon - who is still just a small/medium - just took a quick bath, got sand all over himself afterwards, and is now enjoying a nice feast :) he just came up from a molt a few days ago too!

GB - niiiiiice! I'm loving the images you're getting lately!

In my tats alllllll the crebs are FINALLY UP!!
:banana:

And my tiny, Aster, changed into the cutest little green turbo after moulting. She barely grew at all, which surprised me.

Quince the fat tailed gecko; Amazonian minnows; and now Harry & Luis, Bede & Aster, Chandra & Jace, Pax, & Piccolo, my adopted PPs.
RIP Vegita :(
