Very cool, Lance!  I can't believe you forgot me mentioning these to you!  My six come today, so I'll be sure to let you know how they look in comparison!

Gotta think about that all right now are WC. Once people start hatching them the CB babies should go for double. If your looking for some .....Ben has nice healthy ones, that's where I got mine.

I think they kinda resemble Marginatas.  Very cool eyes.

I just picked one up a couple of weeks ago (after Lance Confirmed what is was). It was mislabled as a marginata.    SWEET animal.  I have to find some girls somewhere now.

Very cool! They kinda look like more slender halmaharas with a tapered tail.  Totally cool find. Keep us updated on them Smiley
