Whoa...WHOA...WHOA! Those are anthia. And they're mating! You're gonna have babies! Quick, find out how to care for those offspring. I've wanted those ever since I knew they existed, and this is the first time I've ever met anyone who owned a live pair.

Where do you live?

Anthia

To those that are interested, I have several of them. I had not put them up for sale yet because I was waiting on an id. Anyone interested pm me for details.
