Lost one of the old men. Same deal as the one above with the gapping above the head. The one I have left still seems pretty robust.

The 8 are still going strong. I will be moving them from the nursery soon.
I did lose the last of the old men this week. Amazing long life. 16 or 17 months!
Here is a pic of him hours before he died. Note the tissue degradation above the cuttlebone.
