Now Shrimpy is hiding, maybe he's gonna molt soon? |
I was always cleaning the "molt" skin out of the tank. I was constantly uprighting the hermit crabs.

I would drop larger shells for them to crawl into when they outgrew their own shells.
Do you have those tiny tiny tiny stars that stay on the sides of your tank? I could never figure out where they came from. I always figured they were, what I called, hitchhikers (they were attached to other things we bought and put in the tank).
