Not dwarfs.

At least I recognized they weren't dwarf when I got there. Figured might as well buy them and figure it out latter.

Anyone know how fast they grow?

they are tiny. Take a look at the link Jay posted. That is how I managed to ID them. at the end of the write up they show a juvie picture that looks just like mine. The yong look nothing like the adults.

Anyone know the growth rate?
