Saw the coolest thing tonight...

[fasteddie]

At least it was cool to me. Being a noobie, first sightings like this I guess would make it more exciting. Since my tank is finaly clearing I can see things like this now. Anyhow, I saw one of my small blue legged hermits crabs was parked next to a nice shiney, bright white, slighly larger shell and was in it cleaning house. He would crawl back inside of it and come out to toss sand out into the water. I guess it would be like a teenager moving to a bigger appartment that the last tennant left a bunch of boxes behind and they had to clean it out before they could oficially move in.:mrgreen:

Anyhow, my point being, I look forward to seeing things like this that happen and watching the tank "grow" with time. I thought I'd share my little experience with you all.

You'll see lots of interesting things going on. That what's make tank watching so interesting.

If you think that was cool.Try looking your rock over with a small flash light after the lights have been out an hour or so.Just cover the lens with a piece of red plastic.

Good thing it didn't turn out to be loaded. That would be one major mess.
