L397 wild adult full grown orange

Post by AmazonTank »

Hi friends hope everyone is well.
Has anyone else seen L397 adults with this striking orange?
Reminded me of the Irwinis with the orange hue on there bodies.
Anyone changed diet to achieve colors?

Yes, over the years from the linage they throw orange. i have a friend who has been line breeding them for years and have a ton of them that are orange instead of the normal red.
