What do you all think these are? I bought the first one as ocell but im thinking it is an orino. The second one it was sold to me as a kelberi but looks more like an azul.... opinions?

Looks to have more Ocellaris traits than Brokopondo, could be wrong though. There have been some brokos with more spangling though.

Ok thanks I wasn’t sure. With all the red on the anil and pelvic fins, I see the ocell traits your talking about but wasn’t sure with the way the back bar was broken up and the blood red eyes.
