Paratheraps Synspilum has the most beautiful rainbow colours on fins and body. Melarunus, imo is a poor cousin in terms of colour, to the Synspilum. The rainbow colours on the Melarunus are not as distinct or crisp as the Synspilum.

The ones you posted all look like Syns to me. Did you check the link I gave you?You can see the melanurus has a blacker under body and tail fin.The coloration is more one color extending the length of the body where as Syns are more of a rainbow.
