Why Am I So Stupid??

FishKid · 06-24-2001, 03:05 PM

Why am I so Stupid? Why didn't I listen to everyone? Well, I didnt listen to what people were saying about hermits. And I am kind of mad at myself right now! I was re-arranging my rock work, and what did I see? A scarlet reef hermit in a CONCH SHELL! "You *&^*&@# &^*%$#@ &#&$@ @# $#!T!!!" $6 and a cool animal down the drain, I went to get the hermit, I had thoughts of murder on my mind, but couldnt catch him!

I know that the hermit killed it, because I saw the little conch chugging allong early that morning, and trust me, I have PLENTY of extra shells! atleast 30 shells, but more like 50!

I dont think a scarlet could fit in a conch shell. My conch(strombus gigas) has a very narrow slit in his shell that no hermit crab could fit in. The conch is my favorite thing in my 10 gallon, I like him more then my clownfish!
