wow that vagans looks really blue!

its not actualy blue at all, it's because she's so velvety the light's reflecting at a funny angle

she's actualy quite black, we had just rehoused her in that picture

Yea I believe thats called berifringence;interference coliurs. Many Ts (and beetles) feature it.
Is H lividum genuinely blue tho?

[Adam Smith]

H lividum is blue but has to be seen in certain angle and light because the blue hairs are very fine and are blue but on other angles looks greyish blac. If its in the right ange and light looks fantastic but they rarely come out their burrows. My friend has a Singapore blue which in some photos look really blue but when ive seen it in the tank it doesnt look nearly as bright and bold. P metallica have impressive blue bits that can be seen under most lighting.

Ive noticed some Ts that have green/blue on their feet in certain situations-I think the flash during the photographing picks it out.
