I went with a literary theme with my most recent purchase. From Peter Pan, I have the "Lost Crabs" - Toodles, Slightly, Nibs, and Curly. My other two crabs (Rack and Benny from the Veggietales movie) fit in nicely and became "The Twins" (also Lost Boys from Peter Pan).

Mommy to:
Rack, 23 Sep 08; Benny, 23 Sep 08; Slightly, 3 Jan 09; Nibs, 3 Jan 09; Curly, 3 Jan 09; Spaz, 5 Jul 09

I like Miko, I know you will need three names, but Miko was my favourite from the list.

Congrats on the Hermies!! XD

I like Miko and Ari a lot.

My hermies (the ones in the main tank) are all named after explorers. I have Cortes, Magellan, Leif, Lewis, Clark, Sacagawea, and Hudson. The rescues in the other tank are G names: Gerald, George, and Gabby.
I have 13 hermies, and 30-something pets in all (it varies).

As mentioned in another post blue berry's are only found in Japan. Their Customs is like Aus. they do not permit them to be exported out of Japan. Sorry, I highly doubt if you have a blue berry. Possibly a PP or such that diet played a roll in its coloring.
