shannon Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Has anyone ever heard of female cyathopharynx having a tiny bit of colour on their sides? One of my wc females has little green and blue flecks whenever I take a photo with flash on. But she has no other male characteristics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
