    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.

      He mostly works with conservation for museums. So he travels around and do work for them to keep/restore their collections. Though he has some specimens in his private collection as well.
