I just got some powder blues and thought that i would post a pic of this one. It is the only one of them with colors like these. The 55 high was the very first tank that i put this much work into. It was a test to see if i could make it happen. I was scared to mess up a tank and thought what the heck everyone else had to start somewhere. Hope you guys like the pics.

Is that last picture a powder blue? Doesn't look like one..
Looks more like a Cobalt, you might want to double check with the breeder to verify.
Thats exactly what I was thinking.

I wouldn't speculate it's not a powder blue based on this pic.
Photo is a bit underexposed. The coloring of the legs start off darker and lighten up as they mature.
It's a powder blue, the breeder doesn't own any cobalts and the grandparents to this frog are lisa chesney's pair of powder blues. (Pat nabors Gray morph.) The pic was shot in my window and the froglet is the only one that has that much color. There is another one with fade colors like that but not as strong. So yes it is a powder blue.:D

Just curious, how old is that frog? When PB's first emerge from the water they are quite dark.
This is normal for Powder Blues to look like when they morph out. Even ones that lack yellow coloration as adults will have yellow when they first come out of the water for up to a month in my experience.

So don't worry folks...not a Cobalt...Its a Powder Blue.

It does look very young as Bill pointed out. (at least to be sold and shipped)
The four of them are 2 months otw. They were not shipped but brought to my personally. The breeder I got them from brought them from kentucky for me, and I'm very greatful to have the chance to raise these froglets to adults like my citronellas. Thanks for the back-up guys.:D
I can vouch for the breeder Chris got these guys from. These are the grandchildren from my Powder Blue pair.

Nice job. I really like the the smooth stones too.

Very zen feng shui, Mr Frogmanchu.:D

I bet you will raise those powder blues up to be spectacular.

That tank is a 55H?
Is it like an Oceanic cube style tank?....I am not familiar with the size... whats the dimensions/measurements?

Cool, I'm curious to see how it turns out.

Haven't measured it, but very cube style. It is a 55 high. I put my leucomelas in there hoping that they will breed soon LOL. They stay all over the tank and are alot bolder then before. So i think i might have done something right. I'm proud of it it's this piece much more to come.
:D
