They are sometime mislabelled as ritteris because of the size but just thought I'd mention that there IS such a thing as a gargantuan BTA (just a bit rare usually). They can fetch quite a price. I hope they made it to good homes.

Well, they had a yellow tinge, and seemed to have more "tentacles per square inch", if you can call it that. :confused: Plus they were both parked on the glass when I was there. Although, may they just didn't want to touch that rock...... :rolleyes:

I don't think they had any "pimples" tho.. :mrgreen:

I actually forgot to mention it to you, but thought of it at the time. :biggrin:
