So I ordered a pair of het albinos from Raul at West Coast Jungle. They got here this morning, and they are beautiful! Neither of them tried to bite, they just looked around until I took a picture and put them in their tubs.

The names require a bit of an explanation. I was poking around a chatroom, asking for name suggestions. One of my friends demanded I name them Maru and Mari. Slightly confused, I soon learned that "Maru Mari" was from the original Metroid game, what we now call the "morph ball" ! It was too perfect.

So here they are. The pictures were taken on the t-shirt that was sent with them.

Maru, the male.


And Mari, the female.


For being clutchmates, and approximately the same size at birth, Maru is -big-!
