Let's all remember to give thanks to nature's cleanup crew; the detritivores, scavengers, decomposers, and whatnot. Sure, most of them might be disgusting, oozing, nasty little creepy-crawlies, but this world would be quite unpleasant without them. So let's take a moment to give credit to the hideous creatures that keep our world not so hideous! :D

    Are you going to make a journal on them? ANTDrew would love to help anyone who has Tetra questions!

If any of you have heard of this "Xenobot" thing, don't get excited. It isn't alive, it's not an organism, and it never will be. It has no consciousness, it can't feel pain (or anything), it doesn't have feelings or free will. It's just a robot and nothing more.

Collecting whole, established colonies is a harmful practice, especially if it is a rare species.
