hi guys, thought i'd give an update on my retics.
i've had them since feb of this year, they've gone from 3.5 inch discs to 5.5-6 inch discs.
originally, the female was larger than the male but strangely enough, the male has outgrown the female. somewhat of a concern, but we shall see.
he is still somewhat skittish and stand-offish, but she is very curious and sweet.

i've noticed that they have vastly different patterning and wanted to see what you guys think.
hers is the regular small dark dotted pattern on brown, and his is brown honeycombs outlined in darker separations. i'm wondering if he's a full retic as he has outgrown her from being quite smaller than her upon purchase.

here are some pics.
sorry about the offcolor and blur. they are from my blackberry.

they love playing in the play sand, so they get a little dusty from time to time.

The males' pattern is incredible. Beautiful rays. Glad to see another retic enthusiast.

thank you! :)

i wish i could get a better picture of him, not covered in sand and such, but the lil bugger is always on the move and blurs in any pic i take when "clean".
