yeah they are completely different to bens bass, or most of the bass going around at the moment which have all been mono's. i'll have to wai till they get bigger and maybe then they can be properly identified

cheers mate. i bought them a year ago for $50 each @ 3cm, before the perth "bass flood". now they are everywhere for sooo cheap!!

sorry mate i'm no bass expert so i couldn't tell ya. from what i understand ocell's have red eyes - wild or not

A batch of occellaris came in a while back and also recently.

Was told they are farm occellaris from Asia.
