Susannah<p>For 13 years, I maintained an invertebrates aquarium, housing only small critters from local intertidal zones. 13 years! In the aftermath of Covid, I had to give it up. It's been two years now, and I miss my critters, especially the hermit crabs. So I've decided to do a Daily Hermit post here, using photos of those glorious years. <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/VancouverIsland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>VancouverIsland</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/HermitCrabs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HermitCrabs</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/IntertidalInvertebrates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>IntertidalInvertebrates</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/Invertebrates" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Invertebrates</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.ca/tags/DailyHermit" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DailyHermit</span></a></p>
