| Re: My Large Amphipod Well I didn't have a picnic, but it was fun.
Yesterday I was home early from work so I fished him out without too much fight and got him in a plastic pint glass with some sand and water.
Drove him down to the local beach and acclimated him. After a while he was swimming around in the cup and seemed ready to me. So I walked a few feet in the water and released him and watched him swim down to the bottom.
I'll miss him. He was a character. But it didn't seem right keeping him in my water with high pH. Maybe another time. Until then, later little guy!!  |

| Re: My Large Amphipod Well, karma to you for releasing him, Matt!! I don't think he would have lived very long in your set up; and I would have hated to watch him slowly starve to death. You did the right thing, Bud!!!
