Cholla

Post by piratetoothgir » Sat May 26, 2018 6:20 am

So, my crabs refused to use the branch to the shell shop, but they love the one to the moss. I think this branch was too thin, so I replaced it!

Here’s a picture!

I also used tiny zip ties to attach the branches to each other :)

No, it’s not attached. I pushed some of the bottom into the substrate and covered it. It’s stable enough for me to tap it without even moving.
