So tonight the Mexican red leg hermit was checking out another empty shell in the same hood as last night. She is picky. She did not like it either and moved right back into her home.
I have not mentioned it but I have caught 4 or 5 gorilla crabs since the last of the LR came in. Then this evening I see a big muther crab. I go in for the kill. . . . . Dang it is just a molt. Way too big for my liking.
Then I see another - much smaller one. He moves behind a rock and gets away. But I wait . . . . . . and several minutes later he come back into striking range. The spear goes right throuh him. Bullseye!
He is right by the flower anemone who is hanging upside down under an overhang. I give the anemone a nice little snack that he happily accepts.
No sence wasting a crab. Besides Mantis #2's door is already shut for the night. Since i aquascaped I do not know where Mantis #1 is at. Mantis #3 is still in the sump. I gotta get him to a LFS.
