Nice, I really like the bright color of the last one, that neon green color. Hopefully it stays that color for you. Can't wait for a pic with all them together :)

Sweet looking variety there! I used to have some but I couldn't handle them constantly moving around so I got rid of them.

Me too, they will be here today around 2 so just waiting till then. Still looking for a Lemond Drop , Flame, a nice purple tip, and a white but then again I can keep waiting for those for a while.

I like the green one two, something tells me it will change color a bit over time but we shall see.

Nice selection this clowns are gonna be in shock with so many colorful bubble tips to choose from, just be careful they don't start having seizures cause they are so happy

jiffy · Feb 11, 2011

did they arrive safely?

emureef · Feb 11, 2011

i must say your going to have a heck of a collection for sure. The lemon and flame bubble tips are very nice pieces indeed. I'd love to own one myself but a bit much for a BTA for me lol.

They sure did, well all but two. One from one guy got lost by Fedex...... then showed up a day late. half the bubbles popped and its stomach inverted not sure but it looks like it is going to be dead in the next day. One I will have him ship next week. So all in all good considering the weather. There are five in the tank now looking awesome, I took some pics of them acclimating and of them opened up I'll post tomorrow.
