this depends on the purpose u keeping aro...for a 1.5, when reach ~13", just fetch around 500++ wherease for a RTG, can go to 1000++. The tank, effort, food that for both 1.5 & RTG is the same......

I see. I just checked out Xian Leng today. They had a few, going for about a grand. Found myself lurking around their blood's, chili's and X-backs most of the time though. What beauties

Kimtero bro, found yourself a nice RTG yet?
