My old roomate had one, but one day it freaked out and started swimming in circles and then laid on its back just moving its hind legs back and forth. That was pretty much the end of him, he died a day or two later

Matrix and Tango


Matrix is my O. havanensis ... he got moved into a new tank today, so we had a photo shoot! And Tango (O. scyllarus) just arrived here today, so I photographed him before he went into his new home. Enjoy!!
