New to the forum

Hello, I am new to this forum as well as hermit crabs. I've kept salt water aquariums on and off for 10 years or so. My first love is, and always will be cephalopods. However, since I've moved somewhat far from the ocean (when you used to live on the beach, a couple of miles is plenty far), my cephalokeeping has been curtailed. In the meantime, I've suddenly had a hermit crab thrust on me and I've never been one to turn down free marine life... or land adapted marine life.

Hi -- another Houstonian, I see. I am also a fan of the cephalopod, and drop by http://www.tonmo.com one in a blue moon just to see the photos people have posted of their octopi. I doubt I'll ever keep one as a pet, but it's fun to dream, anyhow!
