Top looks to be a stressed out purple. Hard to tell.

The second is Kessleri.

Idk the dorsal isn't as long as a purples. The smaller one looks just like the larger one except slightly lighter but the tank is lighter.

Doesn't look like any purple I've seen. Even stressed
 
The top looks to be sp tahayou with the bottom pic. Better pic helps.

If the smaller looks similar then it’s likely the same. I believe the kesseleri don’t have the humeral spot. So I take back what I said earlier lol.

Well we'll see as it grows out lol will update
 
Well the little guy ate and is swimming about with the gold. Have a picture of him but it's blurry since he was moving. Have to siphon the food out. Put a lot in to make sure the Trachy didn't get any of those predatory urges kolt talked about. I was worried about the upside down catfish as he tries to be a jerk to everyone, but he didn't snap at it, the jag did as I figured would happen, right after the picture in fact, bit the much larger gold wolf too. Jag cat is a little shorter in length but much girthier than the ery.

Not much of an update, it ate the first night, doesn't like doing so in front of me, takes a few minutes for it to grab something with me in front of the tank. Caught it swimming up too with the gold wolf a few times but it runs to cover when I walk in, gonna try to get a pic, eventually it will happen lol. Fins a bit tattered saw the upside down cat go after it.
