Someone will correct me if I am wrong, but some rubrostriatas start to
look a little inornata-ish if they get too washed out. Basically, when
they are healthy and well-bred, the rubrostriata is more striped and the
inornata has the distinctive checkering on the 2nd caudal and anal fins.

Not sure we are allowed to send eggs through the mail - again, someone
may wish to expand on this.

Cheers, Andrew
