The blue shell is just the light reflecting off of it, but overallis a typical color derasa.

A really bad picture but only one I could find. I haven't seen any true black and white squamosas around.



It's about 8 inches now.

Great pics. I'm partial to maximas & squamosas. Never been impressed with croceas.

Does live aquaria do a little photoshopping? It doesn't seem real for both pictures.
