Alright – we’re full swing into saving Frank and preparing a nice new habitat for him. First step is to drop the salinity of his current home which measured 1.030+ (yes I know; how he’s alive is a miracle) down to a more comfortable 1.010-1.014 without dying. Got some distilled water and an acclimation drop at about 1-2 drops a second. Will be monitoring and see how things go!

Meanwhile – construction on Frank’s eventual forever home is about to get started!

    Wonderful! Glad you made the leap, I was wondering what that salinity would be.

    These guys come from pretty rough anchialine pools that change salinity often. They are pretty hardy little ones.
