    Re: Echo and Skye Blue

    Well, Skye shed today so I got out my camera for a little photo shoot. Got the butt pictures! They were not at all happy about it. Echo I am going to say is female. Skye I am going to say is possibly a male. When compared side by side, Echo's tail narrows obviously, where Skye's stays the same. I'm guessing it will become easier to tell one way or another as "he" grows more mature. What do you guys think?

    They are still pretty young/small and things could change for sure. I say female on both for now.

    Re: Echo and Skye Blue

    It is tough to call. That's why I told people I would make an attempt if requested, but no guarantees. Very hard to tell until they get more size on them. Still, I'm thinking Skye = female, Echo = male.

    Nice photos.

    Re: Echo and Skye Blue

    Not much to update, but I pretty much keep my camera beside the tank so... I end up with quite a few photos. I love taking pictures of these guys.

    Here's their tank, the substrate is Reptibark. The water dish is a ceramic dog bowl that sits on the bottom of the tank (there is no possible way they can get under it). They don't really like hiding, but they can go under both pieces of driftwood if they want to. The 3-d foam background is on the outside of the tank.



    Skye is the less active of the two, so when she decided to cruise around I started clicking away, lol. I almost wanted to name her Rainbow, I think you can really see why from this shot.

    SKYE & ECHO They posed in almost exactly the same spot. Believe it or not, Echo also has quite a bit of blue tint. I find it so odd that is dose not show up in photos.
