Probably on the 12th of Oct. :) I think 5 days is a good amount of time for it to be up. But maybe a few more days after that :wacko::) Well see how things go.

Is the coloration on the first bug from recent molting? I've seen some phacops that are much lighter color and very thin shells from recent molting, then immediate burial. I don't know how that species molts (which sutures peel first). It's a very pretty bug. :wub:
