Yesterday at the touch tank our lightning snail was on the move. He was wiggling around all day and even stuck out his tongue at us!
The two crabs that lost their legs are still rehabilitating in our crabby hospital (AKA our little tank within our tank) and are expected to make a full recovery after three mults.
Our creature feature of the week this week the sea urchin is MIA as of yesterday but it's so little it is probably hiding right under our noses. The Urchins unknown where-abouts will not keep him/her from being named though :D We are drawing the names today so be sure to check and see who's name was drawn tonight!
