I've had this snail since the day my tank was officially cycled. Saw it on occasion here and there, it would disappear for a couple weeks and then show up for a day or two then disappear again. Well since november the thing sat, half buried in the sand and never moved, literally. Well it seems to have awoken from it's seven month slumber and is back in action. I wonder if it was hibernating for the winter or what. No matter either way it's a cool snail.

Oh yes and I know I gotta clea the tank. But it's summer and I'm soooo lazy. Seriously I can't believe how much that sea-hare kept the hair algae in check. He lived for almost a year which is supposedly a pretty long life for one of those things. Definitely a must replace on my list.
