yea they tend to cost more

Freckles/speckles and lines are normal with our local RBTAs

They can bubble or not, and have some super green tints

The 2 pics are of the same critter months apart

Thanks guys. Is there an different name for the ones that has freckles or they are just called "RBTA"?

gregzz4 03-23-2015 04:16 AM

I've only seen the ones I pictured, and I've never seen a different name

They are all RBTAs

I like the speckled look, but don't know if it's only a local hybrid or a common thing

Hopefully others will chime in ....

Thanks for the name Jason. He is a size of a loonie at the moment. I feed him 1 mysis per day. I just hope he can stay bubbly for a long time. I heard they tends to lose the bubble tip in captivity(aquarium)

Here's a pic of mine for comparison. It's about 3-4". I feed it mysis as wel every few days. Seems to grow a lot fast n more bubbly when I feed
Some ppl in the states call it paintsplash rbta
