I'd lean toward regani too, with the stronger colors and thickness. My regani I've bought as other species, the dwarves around here run $15.99-17.99 usually.
Hopefully you ended up gettin it. Dwarfs are finally starting to make their way back into the hobby with more regularity!! Its about freaking time as well! Been a long time waiting for them!
Yeah I picked it up. There's another dwarf for $30, didn't get the name. Owner told me not alot of people know about them so they can't justify spending that amount for "such a small fish." When I went back I told him that it was a regani. He said when they got the shipment in it was so small that IDin was difficult. The fish had been sitting on display for about a month.
