More than one type of pygmaeus?

Post by cincy »

I've had a group of pygmaeus for a while that show the darker top body. Two months ago I got some wild pygmaeus that are light bodied. At first I thought it was from the stress from shipping, but they have never changed.

Just a color variation?

My plan was to add this new group to the existing school.
