Hot summer here in Italy

I used to keep my plant indoor under a sansi growlight, about a month ago I put it outside where it can get natural direct sunlight all day long. I expected it to get more red with so much light but it's probably still acclimating. Still looks very healthy to me.

Curious crabs found in marine ecology samples

Sometimes looking under the microscope at our sediment or algae samples from our ecology studies (I work at the University of Pisa, Italy) we find (sadly) some interesting and cool crab specimen, thought I'd share some of them with all you crab enjoyers. The species in the pictures are all found in the Mediterranean sea, near Italian shores.

  1. Eurynome aspera

  2. Ebalia tuberosa and Parthenopoides massena

  3. Achaeus cranchii

  4. Ebalia edwardsii

  5. Parthenopoides massena

  6. Ebalia tuberosa

Hello there! Here's my new baby Hymenopus coronatus, I don't know which stage is it but its body is 1,5-2cm long, very tiny still. Can someone help me tell if it's a male or a female? I personally believe it is a male but I would be happy to be wrong about it.
