Really nice form. Trailers looks to be coming in nicely aswell. Do you think he will turn completely orange in a few inches, or stay at his current color?

Nah, the last shot with his head pressed up against the glass is my favorite! Such the quintessential Midas you've got there.

Thanks

He just recently started flaring at people around his tank.

Man he is going to be a beaut when he gits the 12" mark. We need updates for all your Midas though Boon. Not to mention some Videos we can put on the FB page.;)

Let's hope so. I would be pleased even if he turns out half as nice as his father. I have tried video taping with the PS camera I bought my lady but can't seem to get the colors right due to lighting.

His head will get more orange with changes in mood but I would say this will be his normal colors.

Really nice pics, very nice Midas. The more I see them the more I want one.

Thanks

You should. I haven't been without one since I got my first male close to a decade ago.

Now you know my pain with Jr and taking videos of him. You all have no idea how intense his red/orange is. I think it is a combination of the nighting and the reel lighting that interfears.
