Over the past few days I decided to add some substrate to the tank. Its white sand. Max's colors are not as dark over the white sand but he's much easier to photograph. I actually managed to get some decent pics tonight. Forgive his chin rub, he spazzed pretty bad when I added the sand to the tank.
Here's some more pics-
First, note the continued development of melanophores on his face and tail...
And since we all know what a black aro looks like, here is is with Drogo for a color comparison...
A couple random shots...
And finally, the only good shot I've ever gotten of Max with no flash. Note the clear melanophore development on his back...
