Well it makes sense -- anyone who has had more than two dogs or cats for example can tell you that no two are alike! Just watching my squid shows has demonstrated that humboldts are probably more aggressive than a reef squid for example and in that not every humboldt is as aggressive as the next one. Makes sense. :grin:
