I might be able to find the molt. With him molted (if hes not dead) I think hes hiding. Either way I havent seen him since I went to sleep.

If you really want to see if he's still alive i would just move some rocks around and see if you can find him.

When shrimp molt they become a target because their usual armor is now soft. They usually hide in this time.

Well, I checked every crack I could look into but I didnt see him. Guess we'll find out within the next week huh? I believe he is alive because now the molted shell is gone also.

Well honestly iv never had to flip the other. Its just this ONE snail. I sat him on the shelf, And he never moved. Then 6 hours later he was upside down sucked into his shell about a quarter of an inch away from where I sat him. I dont know what his problem is.

I need to take a rock out of the tank. I got so many I have no where to put my taro tree accept right up against the glass on the dirt. Ugliest thing ever. I know what piece I want to take out but that will take out most of my corraline. It will leave a lot of beneficial bacteria but I loose a lot of color.

My mom told me to hang onto the rock for the 40 when we start it. Thats going to be our seed piece so no pics for awhile. Looks to bad to accept even a PERFECT piece.

I got to get some pics up I know and top off the tank. Il try and get some pics up tonight but its one of those weeks already...Broke down one of my rocks a little smaller and this egg looking thing came out so I tossed it in the tank and its starting to open up and the part thats opening up looks red. My mom said it looked like there was something moving in it so who knows. But the rock is littered with them. Any random shots in the dark?
