    In that picture is a snail which seems to be on it's back. Please help to upright it or it may die and pollute your tank. Some snails can't upright themselves.
    If you've learnt, teach, if you have, give.
    Don't walk behind me as I might not lead, don't walk in front of me as I might not follow. Walk beside me, as my friend.
