Ruthven's King ?

Here is a pic of the female Ruthveni that I bought as nelsoni. ( I know, I'm not all that bright LOL)
I would love some opinions on if she looks like a pure Ruthveni or not.

Thanks
Sean

Here is a pic of what I would consider a fairly high white nelson (compared to my others anyway) for comparison. It kinda sucks buying stuff from a questionable source, I wont do that again.

Sean, the band count is a dead giveaway, a pure amelanistic ruthveni and a nice one....

Thanks Marc, I was hoping you would post to this. I was a little skeptical as this girl seems to have a lot less of the red on her face then the male.

It has hurt the wallet a bit keeping these guys as I was planning on having a large group of nelsons and selling a few off. I am glad that I decided to hold onto them now though.
