I really want them to glow in the dark with that shade of yellow. Reminds me of the roaches that do.

If only I had these around my house. Mini rubber duckies!
One or hopefully two Clypeatus
Goodbye my little E. See you soon.
Bye Fred. You lasted almost 4 years with me. Hope you're with my E now! See you soon Reeba as well. I can't believe I lost you only after a month.

I saw those the other day and fell in love. Forget clean up crew. I would want those as pets!
