Most definately! But I guess I have to wait until I move. I have the boyfriend minding all of the aquatic pets over in California. I don't think I'm allowed to add anything else that needs special attention until I get there myself.

LOL, sounds like your boyfriend is a keeper. Good luck with the move. Send a picture when you get one.

I have a very similar OS. Here's the picture how she looks like now after the molt. I think she had molted, although I didn't see it, while her color is totally different now. I wrote she because I believed that its a girlie.

Below are pictures taken about a year ago, when I asked in this forum about the sex of this specimen.

All said then that it is a female.
