coolest tinc

If you think Patricias and Powderblues should be separated, Alanis and Inferalanis should be kept separated. They were collected in two completely different locales. Inferalanis are a much larger animal and though subtle, the colors and patterns are noticeably different. It's hard to see unless you are looking at them side by side, which I was able to do when I got my Inferalanis. The problem is that so many people are just lumping them together with Alanis the lines are slowly getting muddled which I think is a shame. Same thing goes for Oelemarie, yes they look a lot like standard Alanis but there are differences that I for one would like kept separate. If I ever lose my WC pair I'd like to know that I can find true Inferalanis, but at this point it is going to be difficult because so many people insisted they were the same thing because they look very similar. I know of many people that have descendents of my Inferalanis that bought them as Alanis or now are simply calling them Alanis.

Thanks, Robb, that clears up my question about what I have . I sure thought they looked like "infers" although I was told they were just Alanis. I really think that these lines are now likely quite muddied in the hobby, as you say, because so many people use the terms interchangably. I guess our one saving grace is their relatively new establishment in the hobby and the small community we have.

As for my favorite tincs . . . hmm, that's tough, but I'll put in a few because I'm a tinc fanatic. I really like my New Rivers and Inferalanis; oh, and Brazilian cobalts are NICE (especially the ones Adam Butt has--very high yellow/orange--incredible!).

I have seen the lime green sips in person, and they are pretty cool. I have always wanted to see some of the lorenzo's in person, as I think the pics look nice. Additionally, I have wanted to see some Reginas next to some Giant Orange to see what the actual difference is. Anyone with any insight there?
