The younger ones seem to have longer 'horns', and the largest specimens I have seen hardly have any or have none at all. I'm not sure if this is true across the board, but from what I have seen so far it holds up.

How on earth are you going to let that adorable baby go...? Oh my goodness these guys are ADORABLE when they're babies! :smitten:

Hey PP, how is she doing? I'm done 75% done building then stand. Then I'm going to clean the tank and plumb in the sump/skimmer. Throw in some rock and I'll be ready for her in no time.

Uhm, that may or may not be possible (getting her right away) anymore. My parents are thinking of moving, and if we're moving right away (within a couple of months), would it be possible for you to keep her until then? I just don't feel comfortable having her shipped, go into qt/deworm for a month, finally put her into display, get her comfortable and then having to move her around again.
Now, bring me that horizon...

No problem at all. More time to enjoy her company! I think it'll be a while before she'll outgrow her tank.
