Look more like melanie.

Either Azul or Melaniae. Hard to tell give it a few more months, more telling characteristics will develop

Would you rather have an Azul or Melaniae?

Well in my opinion I would rather have melaniae as they are a bit more "rare" in the hobby and have a bit more going on in regards to patterns and color. All comes down to personal preference!

Theyre the "Rio Meta" Orinos, which have yet to be officially classified as a true Orino as I learned from Wes. But for now that seems to be the closest group they go in
