bitey has taken another step towards world domination. first, it was eating all my danios, seizing ultimate control of his habitat...now this.
so i go into the kitchen...all the way on the other side of my apartment from my fish room...and lo and behold, bitey the crayfish greets me from the floor, claws raised.
now, bitey has been kept in an open-top rubbermaid dealy for a couple months, and before that was in open-top 10g and 20g tanks for over a year. he had never crawled out of those. his tank is filtered by a simple sponge filter, so the air lines were always there for him to crawl out, but he never did...hmm....well, anyway, i went to sleep at 3:30, and he was in his home, on the prowl, and i found him around noon. so it took him about 8 hours to crawl out and scuttle all the way to my kitchen.
luckily, he was uninjured by the stunt, as his home is practically on the ground (the low tier of one of those double stands). good for him, i say. he has taken the next step in his imperialist quest, and i will salute my crayfish master when the time comes, and he ascends to power. you will rue the day you stand in HIS way.
