Day 11 and these two are trying to escape their watery confines. Now have 15 in the transition tank pool. None have ventured to
Land yet but these two might lead the way. https://vimeo.com/152352099

ImageImageImage well one has made the big move. Once out of the water he did a marathon across the tank. About 20cm. But for one so tiny that's an awesome effort.

ImageImageImage. Well #1 is still in the same spot in white shell on sand. #2 in pink shell got out on its own overnight and #3 was climbing the airstone in kriesel in a shell this morning so I put it straight on the sponge. It climbed around for a while but is now back in the water.
