Pandas

A variety of globe eye is the panda, which is a bicolour, black-and-red/yellow/white fish; it became popular in the mid 1990s. The strongly colored, red-black fish on the left was presented at BAS 2001; the picture of the orange-black fish on the right is taken from our video (see About Us).

Tri-colour forms of the panda also exist (for example, black-white-brown and black-white orange).
