I am keeper of these two Poly's. Someone please help me identify these thanks.

The larger one is my old one and is in my aquarium for almost 8 months. It was sold to me as Delhezi. So for me its P. Delhezi.

The other younger one I got today. Sold to me as P mokolembebe. Please excuse the spelling. Can someone also please is this

Thank

First and last pic is a retro and middle pic is a delhezi
 
That's an odd looking retro though. Where did you get it? (If you don't mind me asking)
 
It may just be that it isn't settled in, but Retros are usually a little more green. This one (at least from the pics) looks a bit red.

I did lookup on web before posting here. I have identified this as retro as well or at least close match. I agree on green color . is it just because its a juvi ? Also do you know if these are wild caught ? Are these very common ?
 
I think it's more of being stressed from being moves from a different tank. Keep us updated on how it darkens up as you have a unique specimen so far. As far as I know all Retros are still wild caught (at least the one we get in North America). However it would not surprise me if there were some CB ones popping up in Asia as over there, they seem to have a lot more space and dedication to breed fish than over here.
