Wow thats some serious roots in the second pic (darklands?)
I love the brom top center in your Cristobal tank.
I am in serious need of a male Cristobal. I have two spoiled biatches getting awfully lonely in here

They have such a variable colour / pattern and wide range.
I wonder how those "Calico" Cristobals are doing? Haven't see any pics or heard anything. I think a relatively new hobbyist bought them and I hope they are ok.

Nice Viv's, Jungle look with the roots is nice.
Wow what a head ache of a Cristobal subject that was. Leo did get them but they were being called Marbled Cristobals. Sure would have been a much bigger hit could they have shown up with locale data.

Yeah the roots make it hard to ever see them but I think they like it that way.

Why those frogs were such a hit I have no clue. They are likely to be line bred to F10 in no time with no other known compatible lines to cross with. I'd much rather take on a pair of say site specific Robalo and wait out to see if any others ever come in. Atleast there is a chance to positively match up some compatible frogs to those. You will never know if other cristo's come in from the exact same area as we dont have the info as to where the Marbled came from. I was one of the people to ask him directly for it.
