here is my paludarium as of a few minutes ago :D
this is HC which i rescued from the wake of my destruction a few months back. i was growing my sickly HC immersed in an attempt to rejuvenate it. it was going fine for months. i started out with a small clump of the stuff and spread it about a 5 gal. pretty soon i had a solid carpet in most areas. i wanted to speed things up so i put it outside in the sun and everything cooked, except this little guy. nows hes grown to twice the size he was in under a week...
