Not sure why he went for the "brown" rather than the "pink".
Always thought he was a bit rough compared to Raymond Blanc
I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right!
Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness.

A tardigrade, approx length 1mm
Quote:Explanation: Is this an alien? Probably not, but of all the animals on Earth, the tardigrade might be the best candidate. That's because tardigrades are known to be able to go for decades without food or water, to survive temperatures from near absolute zero to well above the boiling point of water, to survive pressures from near zero to well above that on ocean floors, and to survive direct exposure to dangerous radiations. The far-ranging survivability of these extremophiles was tested in 2011 outside an orbiting space shuttle. Tardigrades are so durable partly because they can repair their own DNA and reduce their body water content to a few percent.

Can't imagine that they'd cost much to feed though, or much attention, not when they can go for decades without food or water, presumably if you don't feed them for a decade they aren't going to be crapping everywhere either so no bedding to change.
Might pop down to Pets At Home tomorrow.
