Got some more pics for everyone. Two days ago he tried to escape, kind of. He crawled up the back wall covering the overflow. Good thing I have two safety features. An egg crate guard covering the overflow as well as a switch that if the water level gets too high it will trip. Luckily I was at work when this happened because I got to sit and watch it. I didn't try to move the nem I wanted to see if all of my planning would pay off. It did. Once he tripped the alarm the water level dropped since the return shut off. When he got a taste of the air he crawled back down.

I plan on a small upgrade to this tank in the coming months and one of them includes building a sump out of a container like this. Stay tuned!

Hi, Everyone.

So it's time... time to build this Nem a bigger home. It's been over a year since he's been living in this glass box, and although a challenge and looked amazing... I feel it's time they get a bit more swimming room.
