7 stripe is a Jullieni
5 stripe is Labeamajor/minor
That what I also read. But it you search both Species you find the same pictures used for both. I have yet to see a distinct 5 stripe. Seems when they get really big a stripe near the belly fades away making it look like it only has 5 stripes. But when small they all have 7 strips. My feeling there all the same fish Jullieni is protected so give it another name and now you can sell them.
