Yeah £120 I think someone attached to the shop breeds them. They had quite a few up for grabs in march. It was sooooooo tempting but I had to pass.

I seriously doubt they got any left but yes they looked good and no I don't think they was sexed as they was all in the same tank.

The shop itself though is well worth a visit especially if you like the L numbers.

Last time I went I could have spent a fortune if i'd let myself.
