Here are some pics I took tonight of some of my guys....
-
2008 hatch Bell Albino male. I guess he is a Sunglow??? Purchased from a tiny show in town last spring for only 30 bucks!...Sometimes the Gecko Gods smile upon you :main_yes:

High Yellow local Petstore pick-up. This is a high quality locally owned shop not a big chain store. Their animals are well cared for :main_thumbsup:

Here is that Tang/Hi-Yellow rescue from a Big Chain store. He has come along way in a short time. I got him on 9/4/08 and this is how he looks 22 days later. Im surprised that this guy is a 29.99 reg petstore Gecko.
1st pic of him on 9/4/08...ughhh what a sad sight!:(

2nd pic of him less than a week after getting him:)

Here he is today! His head scrape is nearly healed and his colors simply glow!:D
Would he be considered a SHCTB? Maybe just a regular Tang? Also I know some lines have a "Look" that slightly distinguishes them from others. Does this guy look like any known lines out there? I kinda thought he looked sorta like a VMS Herpetoculture Tang but Im no expert by any means:main_huh:

Very nice pick ups! I am in love with that last Tang still, of course! ;) He is hot!! That Bell Hybino/Sunglow has turned out very nice! A bargain, indeed, at 30 bucks! :yes: The second one I would call at least a Hypo Tang, rather than a High Yellow (it looks pretty tangy to me, from that pic :yes:). Maybe even a Super Hypo depending on how big it is now and how much more it Hypos out. That third one is just gorgeous, as well. I'm glad you took the poor one home and cared for it. I bet you never expected that from those stressed-out, drab colors it expressed initially! ;) What a good surprise! :) It's looking very good. Right now I would say it will be a SHTCT....it may turn into a baldy, depending on whether or not those spots on the head continue to fade. Very nice ones!

Yeah it goes to show how lack of nutrition and stress from overcrowding can affect color. Thanks for the compliments all.
