Quick Question,

Underside of the shell, those lines that are in between the plates, what color should they be?

Ah ok. Sheldon's are white/almost see thru, so I'm not going crazy then. See when he had his fungus they weren't the right color. There was pink in there cause he had to fight the fungus and deficiencies he had from the pet store.
