Re: Help me identify this Queen I caught?
I'm saying it looks like hyatti, and am wondering how Batspiderfish knows its novaeboracencis. The chewing on the cotton could mean she's stressed in some way, so leave her alone a dark place and check up on her tomorrow and see if she's still chewing on the cotton. Okay thanks.

I also live in Minot North Dakota, if that helps anything. A...
