Tobias and his New Girlfriend!
She's very skinny and is already starting to eat her crix.
No name yet! Any suggestions?
(She's rubbing her eyes on the rocks... Normal or no? She is shedding around her head...)

You can really see her skinniness here, but don't worry, I'm on it!

This is the same female Tobias was in the shop with. She's been there for TWO WHOLE MONTHS!

No worries, I'm running back and forth between the computer and their tank, counting how many crickets are gone and which one is smacking their lips! LOL! I can't believe I've got him a female!

Tobia like her already? LOL I'm sure he does. She needs some beefing up, shes very thin, may need worming if she does not gain weight for you.

But I wish you ALOT of luck with your Pair !

Guess it was FATE, that she was still at the store and they have been reunited, thats nice!

Whats her name?

I've come up with the name "Novia" which means "New, Girlfriend"

I think it fits very nicely!

She has eaten two crickets... I tried a mealworm but it just scared her, so Tobias just stole it instead.

They seem to be getting along great, I guess it is fate!

Novia is shedding like mad at the moment though, and I hope that the only reason why he eyes are bulgy. =/

By the way, worming?

not to burst any bubbles, if you are referring to spanish novia does mean girlfriend but nueva/o would mean new, spanish was one of my majors and is one of my focuses (foci?) with my masters
meal worms freak out milly too. i don't think that she likes the fact that they beat her in the face when she picks them up.

Ahaha, yeah, maybe that's why they scare her. She likes the crix, Tobias likes the worms.

You didn't burst my bubble. ^_^ Just, on babynames.com type in Novia, you'll see what I'm talking about.
