Morning Traffic Jam

Post by Hermitz » Sun May 03, 2015 9:18 am

All my hermits have a favorite day time sleeping spot, it just happens to be the same spot for all of them. Just wanted to share some pictures, I am more of a reader than a poster. I am getting ready to upgrade to a 55 gallon tank so that I can have more climbing space for them :)

how big is the tank now?
Just the basic 10 gallon set up with 2 crabs, plus a 55 gallon at my dad's.

Of course they all want to be there -- it's an irresistible combination: cholla and lava rock :D !

Love it! Kind of reminds me of my crabs trying to all cram into a cork round.

Your crabs are so pretty - love the shells!

Hmm... I already get all of my food from there. I guess I better start looking at the shells too! Thanks!

Thank You everyone! They were adopted from a local pet store that kept them "on display" in a huge glass table. It was awful to say the least. They have grown so much and molted several times each over the past few years. They are such a joy! :crabbigsmile:
