I've had this guy for a while now but have never really shown anyone. I'm not trying to get my hopes up by saying this is a C.Nigromaculata but would rather like know what he really is. What are some known characteristics that a C.Nigromaculata have? Sorry for the crappy pics, I can always take more if need be.
