was out cycling today, went past my lfs and decided to hav a quick look around. looked in the tiny tank which houses black wido tets, and there were some pale blue ones!!! is this natural? they were almost dwarf blue gourami coloured!!!

so confused...

Think they might be dyed but you never know

Black Widows are often dyed unfortunatly

 

[insanityseeker]

thought as much...

Many shops seem to think that it's perfectly OK to stock coloured black widows as most seem to be colour fed, I know of at least one shop that has that opinion. While it isn't as bad as injecting, the health problems haven't really been investigated, but it wouldn't suprise me if the dye was in some way carcinogenic.
