Thanks ALOT roach!! Yes I do have many of the same so don't worry. I have about 6 blue cobalts and I know I have at least 4 red zebras and yellow labs or zebras. Like I said there are probably 4-6 of each I the blue,orange and yellow ones. The rest 1 or 2 tops.
 
no prob homie.. i was thinking some of the blue ones were cobalts but there was just a debate (on another thread) saying cobalts dont have stripes soooo now i have no clue lol

This is gonna be like the never ending story lol. The guy I got them from I trust. He told be they were blue cobalts. 23 I thought was a Johanni? From the google pictures it looks similar. This is kinda fun.

yes 23 could very well be a male johanni.. i only have a female but he does look similar to mine, just blue instead of yellow & a lil different striping

the researching got me through about an hour or more of my work day (since i did it via iphone lol) so thank you for giving me something to do today :)
