Oscar cichlid ID

Hey everyone, I went to my LFS yesterday and saw two baby oscars. They were very different than a average oscar. I've never seen these before and the employee said they rarely get them babies at 2.5 inch eating frozen bloodworms in a 15g temporarily please identify!!

Sorry for bad pics, I'll try to get better ones when I come home from school

There's no red at all, and they were separated from the tiger oscars

They're young and stressed out. The red washes out. They look like tiger oscars. Trust me, I work at a lfs and see those all the time.

Looks to be tiger Os that haven't been super line bred to get more red. Closer to "wild type" I guess you could say.
