i've been mia due to an illness i'm dealing with, and unfortunately i had to adopt out all of my marine hermits because it was just too much to deal with

. but thankfully my great boyfriend has been taking good care of my land hermits, and who has gotten pretty good with pic taking!

catching indo Bast and her huge BP:

aussie Astraea taking a bath:

grabbing a little snack:

little indo Fig:

Bacon enjoying a quick bite:

my tiniest, little blueberry Agate:

strawberry Persimmon and ruggie Vendetta making the rounds around the tank:

sweet straw Fresa:

my beautiful viola Topaz:

little blueberry Opalite:

viola Citrine is very smart, she flits back and forth between the two big tanks using the tunnel:

teal-enhanced ruggie Rogue:

a little test-is Mallow a ruggie or an aussie?

viola Tourmaline, who i think has beautiful coloring:

pretty little baby viola Spinel:

viola Lapis debates whether to switch tanks or not:

my favorite crab, PP Go Go Gadget:

Such adorable crabs. Can I see the land bridge and how you did it?

the connecter is an expandable ferret tube that goes about five feet between the 40B and the 20L.

here you can see the entrance in the 40B:

the entrance in the 20L:

the actual tube (with a crab in it):

Youre a lucky lady! Not everyone has a bf that would so diligently care for crabbies, not to mention take pics of them!

Love the bridge, do they use it a lot?? Mine are all "climbers" so that might be something they would dig!

and...gorgeous crabbies!

Haha! That's hilarious!

So neat that they actually go back and forth!!

Do they ever get stuck?

Glad to see you Back Annopia

As always your crabs are beautiful and I LOVE the hose connecting the 2 tanks how cool is that!!! Hope your illness goes away and things get brighter for you!!!!

Nar-i know, am i lucky or what? i get a guy who loves the crablets almost as much as i do...for graduation i'm getting him his own crab to live with mine, species/size/name of his choosing.

Jeremy-nope, haven't had one get stuck yet, because the tunnel is huge, my larges can easily manuver and i think a jumbo could too.

thanks everybody for all your wonderful comments!
