I was window shopping today and found an ad for wild caught oscars. I have never really fancied oscars, but these were nice and did not look like the ones I usually see. I thought they were really pretty.

I know I am being a noob for asking, but are these what Oscars really look like in the wild? Or do they morph into what I see in stores?

If I in the future ever wanted to buy an Oscar it would be one like these..
 
they are Oscars but thats the first time I've seen one like that the only thing that comes close would be a blueberry oscar and sorry if it is you couldn't pay me to keep one they are dyed and thats just not kool.
 
I'm not a real fan of Oscars but if I ever did get one it would have to be WC. I've seen many photos of them and to me they look much better than the common ones that I see in LFS.

Good looking Oscars.........I already know what color pattern they will be........Seeing those oscar color patterns make me want to start a breeding project.......There are too many standard "regular" Oscars in the LFS......Wild caught Oscars, like the one mentioned in theis thread, are worthy the investment..........
