very nice shots! and Mel is offically renamed ChubChub in my books, lol.

for Elvira's tank, why not get some plants that would do well being rooted underwater (at the back of the underwater area) and have the leaves growing emmersed? that would be a good start to livening up the place.

I would need something that is edible. Any suggestions on what would work?

(((((((Jacki!!!)))))) I love the pictures. Elvira is a beauty.

Oh, Mel Mel Mel.... what has happened to that figure! :grinno:

Jacki, you sure do feed them well, lol. Those have got to be the happiest mudskippers in San Diego. Mini is so cute with that shrimp in his mouth.

Azure is such a lovely girl. She is a beauty. She needs a hubby so she can make some Betta babies.:D

Great pics, Jacki!!

I think her tank is cool. How did you make a division between the sand and water. I do think some kind of plants would be nice, but I know absolutely nothing about planting in tanks, yet.

I just siliconed a piece of acrylic sideways accross the tank. But I just found out I missed a spot because the sand just sucked up most of the water. LOL Poor Elvira, I'm gonna have to move her again.

Well... she looks like she's a well adjusted crab. I'm sure she will handle the move with a cheerful disposition. :grinyes:
