Calling all Tidepoolers!

It was a busy day today at the touch tank! But one of the things we need your help with is getting some more critters! So if you're out tidepooling and find anything cool feel free to bring it by the tank:)

The two crabs that were mating have separated. No signs yet if the girl is with eggs but that will take some time!

The hermit crabs got some more name suggestions today and one in particular was pretty creative (a little girl named one hhhho-with four h's specifically) The names will be picked tomorrow so be sure to check in.
