Thanks ken. I do have some Noth Carolina spotteds that have a fair number of spots. I think that the southern spotteds are more colorful but the northers do seem to have more spots. I am not 100% sure where these adults came from but I think the male is from Jersey. I got him from a pet store back in the 90's that would sell HUNDREDS of spotted every summer. I was only in high school so I couldn't afford the $100 each price tag but there were some unreal spotteds sold there. One time I went to that store they had five 20 gallon tanks filled 5 deep with all male spotteds. They were all poached from Jersey by some drug addict who is now dead of an overdose.
