Hello all. 
I'm 15, and from New York. [SIZE=8pt]I like long walks on the beach and staying out in the rain. [/SIZE]
I've been keeping different aquatic crustaceans, mainly shrimp, for a few months. I had a large colony of Neocaridina denticulata sinensis "red cherry", as well as Palaemonetes paludosus "ghost" and Caridina multidentata "Amano" in a 29gallon tank. I also had a healthy population of various snails and microfauna. Sadly, everything was wiped out by an ammonia spike, even the normally indestructible trumpet snails. I think it was caused by a plant rotting out of sight.
Anyway, I decided to try out more terrestrial creatures that are not as sensitive for a change of pace. I picked up some hermit crabs, Coenibita clypeatus "purple pincher", and they're living happily in a ten gallon aquarium. I found a Chinese mantis today, so I've finally shed my crustacean training wheels.
So... I guess my introduction is finished. I'm sure we'll get along fine, you seem like a friendly bunch.
