I love the pictures. Do you have any pictures of the C.meisei without the babies on her back? We can start to see some interesting coloration on the face of that girl.

I posted some meisei pics on Scorp Files before I had my massive die off...

i dont know if i can link to them or not, let me see if i have them on my website

here is a male/female pair

they are all dead now

all my mexican Cent's died off over one night, over 4 species, including the babies. but oh well, i plan on going to Hamm this year and legally importing a bunch of stuff that is rare in the US.

And oh yeah the nigrescens are awesome, I'd be jealous but ive got some gravid Grosphus spp. that look just like that except bulkier ;P

i forgot to add, i also have tamulus, and here is a surprise: the adults are communal.

i had a pair of the meseii's too but the female died and i now only have a male.
also have a pair of the tamulus.(but after losing my hfg male to the female)will still hold off keeping them communal.
