[Id: an image of a pale brown snail sitting one a miniature blue sofa. Above and below the snail is text that reads "You are doing what you can." "It is enough." "Self-hatred helps no one." The sofa is patterned with darker blue flowers and the image background is a gradient of yellow. End Id]
This is one of the most beautiful shell designs I’ve ever seen!
It’s shell has those beautiful gold crack designs on it, it reminds me of the Japanese art of Kintsugi! Where they would break dishes and repair it with gold, forming incredible designs!
[Id: an image of a pale brown snail sitting on a toy motorcycle. Above and below the snail is text that reads "They want you to give in to the despair" "They want you to give up." "There IS a future for us" "and we WILL live to see it". The words "is" in "There IS a future for us" and "will" in "and we WILL live to see it" are bolded and capitalized. Next to the motorcycle, a red Lego helmet sits on the ground. End Id]
It's only been set up for a few days, but I'm in love, and I can't stop watching Caius swim and explore the tank.
He's such a curious little man and often investigates the snails when they move quickly or float to the surface. He also likes to watch me when I'm near the tank!
Caius is also a good little eater, having tried and eaten everything I've given him. Here he is after having a meal of bloodworms.
The ramshorns in here are doing well also. I thought this one was cute trying to stretch to another buce leaf!
