Since I lost my nem Marlin has been verylonely. He started pestering the dusters... it looked like he was trying to host them, and they did not appreciate the attention at all. Monday night one dropped his crown, and they have both been clamped shut ever since. I put Marlin's rubber nem back in the tank, on the opposite side from the dusters, in an attempt to distract him. It worked... he's back hosting the goofy thing, but the worms haven't come out yet. My water levels are checking out fine so far, but if they don't come out soon I'm afraid they'll die. How do I tell if they've died?

PS - I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving!!! I know I ate more in one sitting than I normally do in two whole days! Ah, it was yummy!
