crab-talk



yahoo news (http://www.physorg.com/news100094217.html) reports the discovery of a new species of freshwater crabs that has been living in rome's ancient watery ruins, fountains and waterways longer than anyone had imagined. ahhh. freshwater crabs. how i miss keeping them. just contacted keong to do some tetra-terrium shopping when i come home. planning to set up a landshore tank with upturned branches and a carpet of sand and water to cover. caecilians, rainbow crabs. the occasional shrimps and food-fish are on my list. home...is to find and set up my own tank again. this was the one i had to dismantle shortly before i left, in july 06. what a foilage! what a waste. resurrection beckons. nostalgia remains. a missing tank. one missing room. and nearing home.
