wow., didn't realize how different these look, James, want to sell me yours? :irked: Can't imagine what these Brazilian orinos will look like, since they've never been imported. I remember seeing a picture of some from the old shedd aquarium, the real butterfly pavon, dark green, with black occelis... :drool:

i stole someone's picture from the rapps rio meta thread for comparison, thanks for letting me use it here...its one of the higher resolution ones that I could find...

They are looking promising already. The best looking one happened to be the biggest one in the batch. I think the rest will catch up. :irked: I am so anxious to wake up this morning to make sure those gold ocellars were not due to stress, and no... they are NOT.

I just PM'ed you another wish list. How soon can you get them? :naughty:

Selling back what?? :ROFL: Thanks.

Soon you will be impressed, too. :D


Few more pictures before bed time... maybe another few hours...
All of them ate just few hours after got out of bag. Very aggressive, active and healthy. No sign of illness. Without seeing them in person, you think they are at least 6-7" size by pattern.

Sorry... :grinno: The moment I posted those pictures, they were sold out at the same time. :irked: I wanted more, but no....

Just fed them. :D I feed them until they say no more.
I noticed the cheek mark, lateral band, and 3 vertical bars come and go. Interesting.
