Well from certain angles I can see a bit of darkness in his scales. Almost impossible to see under a white light though. TBH I had my doubts but I'm not gonna whinge.
I'm real happy with him. I don't know what my mate was on about in regards to the pellets. He eats them just as eagerly as everything else I give him. He does like to hang around the bottom a lot when I enter the room - but I think he's just nervous he should get over it
