They have very similar colors.  The Roscoe is darker green base with royal blue tips, the Chips is an odd green/blue crayola crayon base with light/medium blue tips.

thanks for all the comments.

Joe,
i haven't seen the tomini eat any bubble algae but it is constantly picking at the rocks. he is still shy. as soon as i get near the tank he hides.

You should go check it out. Chris has one of the best rock work going. His tank is top notch.

Chris, can you post some pictures of your equipment and sump room? I would be interested in learning more about your battery backup system.

I nominate Chris to host a meeting soon, I second Joes opinion on his rock work. This is one reason I have recruited him to help me aquascape my 500. Tank is looking great as always Chris keep it up, give us all something to shoot for.
