I’ve Got a Problem

Pinky - Teeny Pink Ruggie - Rugosus Hermit Crab - Canon G2

I went to Petco today after work to pick up some sliversides and krill. Of course I went by the hermie tank, first mistake. They had one straw in the tank, he was huge. I was very tempted, but I showed a little self-restraint, that is until I saw this teeny pink ruggie. His shell is not bigger than a dime and he’s pink! I’ve never seen such a tiny pink ruggie.

Of course I couldn’t get just one. I knew Pinky would have to go into ISO and he would be lonely. So he got two friends, another tiny ruggie and a tiny PP.

Stinky - PP - Clypeatus Hermit Crab - Canon G2

We’ve named them Pinky, Blinky, and Stinky. Actually, Rob named them and he called them “OUR” crabs.
