Hello! This is a note to let the editors of this article know that File:Periclimenes imperator (Emperor shrimp) on Bohadschia argus (Sea cucumber).jpg will be appearing as picture of the day on January 19, 2012. You can view and edit the POTD blurb at Template:POTD/2012-01-19. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page so Wikipedia doesn't look bad. :) Thanks! — howcheng { chat} 20:58, 17 January 2012 (UTC) reply
