    Joining LR

    I got a guy that gives me LR for what he pays for it. So basically cost... Just all the pieces are about 15-20 lbs each and wanted to make some bigger pieces. I found some 3/8" acrlyic rods.. You think that would be big enough? I have the link but am not sure if it is ok to post it on here...

    Joining LR

    This may sound crazy but: Would it be possible to join LR by drilling holes with a Hammer drill and "pinning" them together with acrylic rods or stainless steel pins? I found a site that sells acrylic rods fairly cheap and am tired of my crabs, snails and fish knocking over the smaller pieces of...

    hermit crab not happy? large hermits?

    The crabs I have are bullies... The blue legs always beat the snot out of my snails and eat em. Take their shells and look for another snail to pick on. I swear they stalk the snails when they are on the glass. My red leg hermit doesnt bother anyone and the emerald crab pretty much keeps to himself.
