    New Member, meet my short tail. :]
    Hello everyone,

    the other forum I usually hang out around doesn't have any short tail keepers! So I thought I'd lurk around here for awhile. My guy is a marble Borneo, just over a year. I got him when he was a little hatchling so I could watch his pattern emerge.

    (^ the only picture where his head is in proportion to his body)

    & here's the to-be big guy as of today:

    I can never take a good back picture, but he does have a lot more vivid red marbling. It's only recently that his marbling has really started coming through and it's getting way more intense every time he sheds.

    As far as plans for him go, it looks to me like he's got a couple odd little pattern quirks that could be nothing at all, but in another year or two I'll probably get a female marble (if I can find one, they've been abandoned for platinums and ultra breits :rainon: ) and see what he throws. At worst, I'll get some good looking marbles.

    Sure, but are you sure you don't want to save this:

    The Blood Line's marbles are, well, marbled. :bow: I know mine definitely doesn't have those genes!
