Friedrichsthalii or Loiselli??

[JAWZ 365]

Hi can someone please tell me if this is a Friedrichsthalii or a Loiselii? I bought them from a warehouse labeled as "Friedrichsthalii" but I'm having doubts, because I recently bought some from Jeff Rapps and his aren't even yellow like these. I have a picture of them side by side. The one with the Yellow Circle is from Rapps and the other one is my recent purchase (last picture). I would like to know if I have an imposter. Thanks!

The one in the red circle looks like a Freddie but not the other one.

Red circle is Loisellei... I'm about 99% sure of it... Wait for your Rapps fish to grow, Freddys tend to be drab in colour unti ~5" and then explode with colours

Wait for it to grow some more then post some more pics then you can get a definite answer instead of "probablys"

Yeah if you bought a fish labeled as something from Rapps, or any other vendor here for that matter, than that is what that fish is... They know their stuff
