Daniel Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 Hi Ingo, At the moment I dont have any mature males to photo. I got my animals from Roland (I belive you know him and what species he keeps). Please let me know if there is any missidentification of the stock.

Lucihormetica Posted September 9, 2007 Share Posted September 9, 2007 Dear Daniel, than they looks very dark, but I have determined his stocks. If they don't misslabeled, it will be the right once. I told you, they looks darker as I known, but these sounds and looks interesting. best regards ingo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted September 10, 2007 Author Share Posted September 10, 2007 Hi Ingo! Do you think that the color can have to do with what food they eat? I have seen that the color on the "spots/horns" on the Lucihormetica males can be somewhat variable and that it might have to do with how much caroten they get in their diet.

Lucihormetica Posted September 10, 2007 Share Posted September 10, 2007 Dear Daniel, yes I have seen, that one colony can get into two different colors by the spots. If you are feeding some with carrots and the others not. The corrots will be orange the others yellow. best regards ingo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
