I've been told both Occel and Mono for these two. They've grown considerably since the last attempt at ID'ing. Right now the small one is about 3.5", and the long one about 5.5". The pictures don't show it well, but they are both showing a lot of red on the tail and on their pelvic fins. The pic of them both in the corner is after they were chasing around some of my tetras and got all worked up. I didn't want any casualties, so I fed them some feeders. The little one is eating 1-2 feeder comets a day, and the big one 2-3 feeder comets a day. Does that sound about right?

I always have a hard time distinguishing between Monos and Ocells, but I always hear about Ocells having red eyes. But I'm going with Ocell.
 
Ocell IMO.

Why in the world would this appear monoculus to you?
 
Sigh... it's the same every time: Mono, no occel, no mono, no occel! :nilly:

What size will they have to be before I can get a definite ID?
