    Heads up for the future; not all crustaceans are marine, or even aquatic. Take isopods for instance, aka rollie pollies aka woodlice. Decapods is a better term to describe them all in a neat, generalized category.

I'm an animal sculptor, and I really like my animal models be presentable like your specimens in their thumbnail and in the videos. Any advise would be appreciated much. thank you so much for sharing all these facts, I'm really enjoying them.😊😊😊
