The critters have tolerated it well and I think I got a few good shots for my efforts *Attached Image:* Ahh! Bliss!

Anyhoo, it is now Jacqulin Had a bit of a dodgy moult last time (restricted movement under a glass bottle) so her poor feelers are kinky. Still damn cute though, and getting much better at hand feeding. *Attached Image:* For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett

Callatya Moderator The girl's got crabs! Posts: 9662 Kudos: 5261 Registered: 16-Sep-2001	Again, not sure what this guy is. He's got a death grip when it comes to food though and is a fantastic little hunter. Today he stole a prawn right out from under the nose of a puffer and squirrelled it away in his rock there. It took some serious doing to get him to let go (he's way too small to eat a full prawn even if he shared with those greedy fish) *Attached Image:* Shhhh! I'm hiding.

Callatya Moderator The girl's got crabs! Posts: 9662 Kudos: 5261 Registered: 16-Sep-2001	This guy is a hoot! He's moulted once already so is a bit bigger than this pic, but he is hard to pin down for a decent pic. He is right in with the others at food time but is a bit more hesitant (good thing too, he looks tasty) so holds on to various filter parts and lunges at food as it comes by, or waits for the fish to have stuffed themselves silly before leaping on the remnants. No name yet, I really should think of one. *Attached Image:* Hello there gorgeous wink For animals, the entire universe has been neatly divided into things to (a) mate with, (b) eat, (c) run away from, and (d) rocks. - Terry Pratchett
