<< Interesting; I wonder how they would do in an aquarium with appropriately

containing gravel; it seems like it would be too rough for them and they
would be scratched up, but they seem like they would do all right in a
sandy-bottomed tank. As long as the fish or other inverts like crayfish or
crabs weren't big enough to eat them or were incapable of injuring them I
think that they could do all right.

I'd like to try the small tan ones in my tank, it has a muddy sand bottom.
Can you get any?
