Well...not much of one. But I thought everyone who helped me with the rescue eggs from my LFS I work at might want to see how the babies have grown! Ive lost quite a few, but I can only hope that is normal. The rest are crawling along beautifuly, eating like little piggies, and doing very well! I still can't tell for sure, but I think they are going to be ivory because their new shell growth is starting to look quite white. Wee stunners! ;D Enjoy!!!   My appologies for the pictures not being amazingly good, they are still quite small, so it's difficult to capture them! Odd enough, in the picture they look like they will be goldies. But I swear, some of them are looking like possible ivory.  |

Ooooooh, cute!
I'd say golds, myself. Ivories are definately whiter than that at that size/age.

Thanks!!! You know what's strange though? Their shells so look perfect, so the water must be excellent with the calcium suppliments and crushed coral buffer. However...my two other babies are only showing small improvement. Is this normal? They're growing fab, but only looking a little bit fabber....is fabber a word? lol  |

Check out the new growth vs the old erosion, and I'd say they're definately doing fabber  You can see that there aren't many erosion marks in the new growth at all. Mainly nice smooth new shell, and lovely lovely colours, at that! |

Ah phew! Just making sure! I can't wait to see these two full grown, hopefuly their shell growth will stay perfect from now on so the old damage isn't even noticable and their pretty colours can shine! ;D I adore the deep purple, but especially the green one! Is it possible to produce more green ones? I would love that! ;D
