QUOTE(hong123 @ Mar 18 2009, 12:21 PM) Quite nice star, well balanced pyramiding..lines a bit thin though...are all yor stars pyramided? Don't feed them too much long beans or high protein diet if you want some to have smooth curvy carapace. Also, rmbr they need a hideout with some moisture too...keep posting your other pics bro Cheers
