Had these for a while now and I'm not sure what they're actually called:
I tried to get a good picture but if it's unclear they're pink in color with a green mouth. ------------- 12G Nano Cube | DIY LED Member of GCFB |

I'm no so sure they're gobstoppers, these aren't and never have been as colorful as gobstoppers. They don't resemble these much:
I wish they were those though ------------- 12G Nano Cube | DIY LED Member of GCFB |

I have some identical to yours... Mine were sold to me as gobstoppers... ------------- This is more than a hobby; its a lifestyle. |

Like the first picture I posted or the second? The second is what I see online when I search for gobstoppers, to me they don't look the same since mine don't have any red in the coloration, just pink and the green mouth. I'll attempt to get better pictures just to make sure, not trying to shoot down ID's just don't want to call these fancier than they are considering the gobstoppers I see online are beautiful lol. ------------- 12G Nano Cube | DIY LED Member of GCFB |

Heres a little different contrast picture:
If they're gobstoppers great! If they're something else... great! because they've grown well and look nice, they didn't look like gobstoppers to me but then again I've only seen what was labeled as gobstoppers in pictures and not in person. ------------- 12G Nano Cube | DIY LED Member of GCFB |

IMO gobstopppers have a much morre distinct pink and green. I think they are crazy cat eyes. ------------- |
