They are so cool... and serpents are so easy to keep to! I wish that they were out more then they are though :-( But with the bright orange or red you can see him easier.. legs peaking out and such

I went to my other LFS today to see what they had.. they had maroon ones.. I didnt really like them.. $11 only though.. I asked about the reds and they said they die 2 easy.. their legs fall off and they die.. I said yea if you dont acclimate them correctly.. and he said in his experience they die easy.. I dont know.. we will see I guess! lol mines good for now :)

I had three stars, a red general, an orange linkia, and a chocolate chip...And I actually love the stars the best, well because they have no brains...their circulation is seawater. Yet they always seem to "know" exactly what they are doing...I just think they are so cool...anyway my calcium shot up when I used a new salt and eventually toasted the red general and the orange linkia before I could get it under control again....then one morning the chocolate chip was eating the red general, and the "wild" hermit (red starry hermit?) was eating the orange linkia...so all I have left is my chocolate chip...here he is...not the best pic, and you can still see some evidence of the calcium "burn". If that is even what it was

not hard at all just need alot of lr maybe 100lbs least and when u see them on the sand bed (if u feed ur fish formula 2) put it on top of it and the star with eat it and its very nutritional for it even tho no one really know what they eat
