yes sir, what are the thoughts on ruti vs yarelli? better worse/
 
I haven't had my ruti long enough to decide based on temperament but size wise, ruti is better cuz they grow much smaller and slower so are better suited for aquariums. Rob's had only grown a few inches since he got it. I forgot how long he's had it but I think its close to 6 months give or take. My HLG, technically yarelli but the classifications need to be revised, is extremely aggressive when it comes to fish coming to its spot, except the ruti, he lets her come in, and will chase them all over the tank to get them away.

i guess the thing that is throwing me off is the rounded head.

Matt, I'm thinking that this is the same thing as the one that you lost a few months ago. The one that we decided was probably a dwarf. Thoughts?

I shot you an email with a few more thoughts about this as well.

Now that I look more closely at the pics. There definitely are some differences between it and my ruti. Hmmm...

Rob, make sure to let us know what Matt says or have him tell us himself. I'm curious as well now.
