You can't see gold unless they are slightly larger. Red at that size SCREAMS monoculus. I have never heard of any juvenile (unless out of the ordinary) occelaris have any red on their fins until 6-7".

Are you sure.

Are you sure.

Look how much more of a deep red his has though. His are also hardly 3-4" long.

Point well takin. But I do have pic's of them smaller then 3'' with this much red and also with my mono's showing there gold in there tail's. My personal favorite is to just wait and see what we get.

I think there still too small to tell, could be either mono or ocell..

Also, his even shows deep red while just put into the tank/in the bag. I agree it could be occel, but I sway more monoculus.

1 month down the line, about 1" bigger and much fatter. What do you guys think now?

 

[synodontisjack]

Also I got these guys eating cichlid excel and massivore, im buzzing their eating pellets

 

[orinocensis1]

those are mono

 

[synodontisjack]

Is that a definate mono or does anyone still think occel

 

[Bogwoodbruce]

Probably occels, but somthing is making me think they are monoculus.
