Post Your Ornates

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I can't say for certain but I believe he was wild caught. I got him back in 2006, way before the flood of CB Ornates hit the market up here. Also destinctive was his body shape. Most mature CB Ornates I see now have a taper to their body from their head to their tail. Mine had no taper- thick from head to tail.

My quest is to find another like him some day

Wtf hao ! Did you ever own one that wasnt a stunner. How big was it ?

I'd love to see some more adult Ornates.

I'd also like a tally on how many people have ones that can be jerks vs. not.

Well you know what category mine falls under. Think Vancouver_98683 Vancouver_98683 had a jerk too
