My new Cichla- Ocellaris... I think.

Hi all,

I collected this fella/gal at the weekend and and really happy- Lovely fish and very brave. He/She is about 17" and should be a wild Guyanan Ocellaris but to be honest, I can't really tell the difference between Ocell. and Mono. Any expert opinions?

He/She is stunning in either case and I am really happy!

It is indeed. you can see the Curupira's tail to the left, beneath the wood- thast's his spot and if anything gets too close... well, I'm sure you can imagine his reaction!
