dude. i think we both made a mistake! haha i think all of them have the ocelli when they're juvies and kind of grow out of them. kinda like some J.D.s im not sure though. where is P_P? hahaha! you get him started and he wont shut up. but when you need him he is never around....some mod he is :ROFL: j/k P_P no but really where is scatocephalus or P_P?
Nah not all. I had a 5" male Cr. lepidota (which grew to 7" and then I sold him) and he never had a tail ocelli in the first place. Lots and lots of spangles but no ocelli.

google it! im not lying to you dude. just going by the info provided. look on google images. there is one image that dosnt have it. so either geosites is wrong or you didnt have a lepidota. did you get it from a reputable breeder??
I know my stuff. I'm very sure it was a Lepidota. There could be regional differences, because this species is widely distributed. Mine wasn't farm-bred; it was wild-caught.
