I got some cherry shrimp I bought off aquabid in the mail today. Seems to be my month for cool hitchhikers, 'cause I found what appears to be an asolene spixi in with them.

They're just starting to color up now.



And the snail:

Is that a spixi? (sorry 'bout the blurriness, it's in a corner thats hard to photograph)

Now that is a nice hitchhiker! The last "surprise" I got from the LFS was a couple of MTS on some Wisteria. :(

lol, I would've been really happy if my petsmart wisteria had come with mts. I was happy with my pond snail hitchhikers. :D
