From what I understand, the OBT color varies from a dull tan to a vibrant orange based on the locality of the specimen. Not all OBTs are created equal - some are far more striking than others.

Can anyone shed any light on the various OBT localities and how their color differs by locality?

Extra points if anyone has any photographic examples.

It is true. I have a couple color variations. Google OBT color variations.

I have a red colour form, but it's a juvi & I have not seen it since I rehoused it several months ago.

I think Enn49 has several color forms and likely Arachnoclown has or had as well. Probably others as well.
