I guess it is the little things

Post by sb1227 »

Well, here I am with the various aquariums that fill every spot in my house. My 120 gallon sits stewing with sand, one massive rock and a few small rocks from the 75 and 10 or so inches of water for the second month, waiting for the little sandbed critters to build up.

So I was looking at it today, as I do every day, and low and behold I found a tiny young cerith snail all by itself on a rock. I was surprised, kind of felt sorry for the little fella all by himself in that big ol' tank. I got him a couple of rubble peices from another tank so he would have a little more chance of something to eat.

I have to admit I was a little excited to see him, and at least for this often cynical person.....maybe seeing the little things still does work. :)

I know the little things in this hobby are what interest me so much. Every day, literally, I see something different in my tank. I can't wait to get home to see what's different every day!

Envious.........Wish I had a bigger tank......

The little things, you mean like the baby starfish with an uneven number of legs, like the ones that are multiplying like crazy in my tank ? :shock:

LOL!! Yeah, prolific little buggers, aren't they? I think mine are finally starting to slack off. I haven't had any damage from them, they mainly stay on the glass and rocks.
