I've got 4 from him in that last few months most with multiple mouths/eyes so they should split fairly easy eventually.
Once i see how this thing does for me (and I recover from the unexpected RV repair expenses), I'll order more online. Burke and March both have some nice ones.

They had bulbous looking tentacles but were sparse on the oral disc... definitely nothing red that I saw.

I hummed and haa'd for a while cus they wanted $50 for 2 heads... then they moved them out of their open top system and into tanks over their live rock... still I hummed and haa'd while my wife was wondering why I was taking so long looking at these things.

Hopefully they'll colour up for you.
This is a smaller one: around 1-1.25" I think (with two other tiny ones on the rock). And yes, the tentacles are bulbous and quite sparse. The colour (a neon green) is great. It is glowing under my T5s, so I'll be interesting to see how the colour changes (if at all). I paid $20 for this guy, so the investment isn't too huge if it all goes bad.

Thanks, Reef Geek! I stopped by Gold Aquariums this evening, and I picked up both of the itty bitty rics. I don't know how you spotted them . . . maybe we should call you "Hawk Eye." He charged me $20 for both of them (and nearly talked me into a blue-spotted jaw fish in the process). They're so tiny that I had to glue the bits of rock that they're on to frag disks: lest my tuxedo urchins decide to wear them as hats and relocate them.
