Yeh, I was so happy when Termite picked that turbo, He's sticking out of it now when he puts into it. Sigh...it use to be too big on him. It's quite thick and sturdy, but when the UV light is behind him the light is so bright that you can see his tail faintly through the shell :D It's rather cool.

Hercie must have a very slim butt because otherwise I dunno how the heck he fits it in there. The shell is so small that a teeny saw the back of while Hercie was curled up and not very visible from behind and the teeny ran up to the shell, grabbed it and tried to roll it over....and got the biggest fright when she realised that there was a humungous crab attached to it lol.

He is a wee bit larger than Termite I think, but is a scaredy cat. It's the most pathetic thing to see him curl in a ball and pretend he's not there. Sometimes he does it wrong and leaves a leg or two sticking out, kicked out at an awkward angle. That's what he was doing when I first saw him in the shop and I thought he was dead because his legs were sticking out all funny.
