I was looking for an I.D for these guys. I've been thinking orino's for the last few weeks. Here are a few pictures.

These are ones in my brother's tank. The last 2 pictures are of the one I took from him, taken this morning.

So what do you guys think? Are we looking at orino's?

i think that would be the last guess. looks orinos to me. where are the experts at?
 
The bottom two pictures are of the same fish. One was taken with flash (to show the green) and one was taken without the flash (to show the yellow rings around the body spots).

All these fish looked identical when they were together, it's just my tank. It has dim lighting for my Dats and rays, works well with the fish but it doesn't do much for their coloring.

Thanks for the replys guys....keep them coming.
 
My First guess is that they are orinos, if not orinos then definately occel. :)
Awesome fishes
 
im a pbass newbie, but from what ive seen here on MFK, id say they look like orinos because of the gold around the black spots...

What did you take this morning, or what did you forget to take this morning? :eek: They can be any kind, but for sure not Temensis, unless you're in a joking mood :D They look like Orinos, but I'm no expert :)
