I had one just like those two. she was a neonate and a problem feeder so I traded her for a desert king. If you want my opinion they look awesome. If only they were'nt so picky when they're neonate I would have thousands of these.

This is the drowning victim from last month but it also was a nice variation of color for the Grey Band. Such a wide range of color patterns that your don't really see until you look at numerous pictures. A nice colage. I thought mine were nice. Look at those dark colors you guys have.

Desert Ambush: I also had a small problem with a non-feeder but most of them snap out of that. The reward of getting the animal to feed is worth it if you ask me.

Most of mine used to eat, but I would put fussy ones on the pump right away, same with pyros, and the rare greeri or thayeri that were stubborn. It never used to take very long before they were eating pinks on their own.

I really think the feeding problems are far less now than with wild caught stock of a decade or two ago. Selective captive breeding improves the feeding problems
by the sure fact that the good feeders are generally the ones that end up as breeders.
The positive feeding characteristics then get passed on to the offspring
