Kinda sucks that these could *potentially* be pins while WC pins are flying in through the door of vendors right now lol don't you just wish you could tell the future sometimes :)

yes, I'm well aware that there's ich in the pictures. they're long gone now.
You can see in the 1st pic how redder the tem is (bottom)

temensis, clean bars, nothing going on up top of the bars.

sp. xingu, different head shape than the tem above. no matter how much I rub my eyes, there might be something at the top of the middle & 3rd bar.. a couple more months and surely we'll have an ID.

whatever they turn out to be, I'm convinced they aren't tems

hi guys, can I suggest its an azul?
the mid bars between the 3 main ones seem to be showing right below the dorsal.

Yes you can suggest, but they look nothing like an Azul at this size. :)
 
What size are they now? Looks like tems to me as well but I do see the differences very interesting to see how they turn out. I was going to pick some of these up too but couldnt swing it.
 
Im going to add a horrible picture to this thread but I just got my pinima in yesterday and my tem. They are only 4 inches but there is a very clear difference between the 2.
This picture was taken 5 min after I got them out of the bags ill get a better one tomorrow when the lights go on. Tem is in the back
