I scored an absolutely stunning pair of Gold Occies from Dicky this week. The new next door neighbours to the Blue Occies I already have. Hopefully this may spark some breeding action.

 

Female with Male peeking over the shell at the back.

Haha not for a while yet brother. Might redo my big tank later this year but undecided as to the occupants. All the cool stuff is too hard to find or noxious!

They are pretty nice Brett, apparently not an ocellatus though. Lamprologus meleagris. Nice fish.

I not sure Mattia, Richo?

That's right - common name is the pearly ocellatus.

 

Black occies are Lamprologus speciosus unless reclassified again. Seen some for sale in Sydney recently

Very nice Richo. Thanks again very much appreciated.
