I won some 1" juvies at an auction this past Saturday, and I swear they are Uro's based on the tail spot. The guy claimed that he had a breeding pair from Jeff Rapp's, I hope this is true but it concerns me a little when they spelled Festae, Festa's.......
 
Post pics of yours, and maybe we can help you decide.
 
Simple - just post yours. We'll know immediately. :)
 
:iagree:

uros do get sold as red terrors a lot and vice versa.

I have seen them listed on trade stock lists as red terror/uropthalmus.

Ultimately the red terror is better looking in my opinion and a bit more aggressive.
both species are considered aggressive
 
Uro's get sold as red terrors all the time, not so much vice versa. In fact, I NEVER see "uro's" correctly labeled at stores. "Red Terror" is a "catchall" term for both fish.

Personally, not to derail, I find Uro's much more attractive. I love the pinks, and the bold contrast on the Uros. But both are gorgeous fish, and yes, both are super aggressive.
 
In your avatar - poor thing!

As for your fish - Just post yours and like I said... immediate answer. Don't make it harder on yourself :)
 
Did it even occur to you that he could very easily send you a picture of a festae pair, but not the true parents....

Let's see yours!
 
Even with a lousy photo, it will be pretty easy to tell.
