I've just found out what translucent means, (thanks for that!) But i'm intrigued to know what the rest means...

According to my friend, he's a "translucent, citrus, micro-scaled leatherback, (poss. Het hypo.) Obviously I know poss means possible, but what does het hypo mean, what does citrus mean, is that simply his colour morph? and is micro-scaled just another name for leatherback?

I'm not planning on breeding him or anything, i'm just interested in what it all means heheh. :lol:

Citrus is a yellow color line, hypo is short for hypomelanestic which is a reduction/removal of dark/black pigment from the skin. Micro scale leather is a leather back with really tiny scales.

I just set Swordtail's timer for his bath and paused it so I could actually fill his soaking bowl up and he crawled over my phone and canceled the timer 🤣
Mirage came out of brumation on April 26. He was doing great. On May 2 he started acting funny. We just redid his tank, and he keeps going into one of his hides. He just lays there. He shows no intrest in food. HELP!
