Haha PRC he DOES!!! He was almost dead when I got him. The shipped him and the peps and a few snails on the coldest day Florida had seen ( up til now) they got to the ups facility at midnight then rode in a cold bouncy ups truck all day. They were finally delivered to me at 6:30 pm. Their bags were chilly and he was just limp. His body at the time was the quarter size. I had to do kind of a quick acclimation on him to get him warm. When i got him into the tank, he went into the cave under the big rock and all i had seen of him since was tentacles waving around. He's my ugly alien miracle!
