Nice Wolf. Why are the rummy nosed fake? The yellow bit?

Firehead tetras are often sold as rummynose tetras the third species that is confused with rumynoses are
False rummy nose tetra

Basicly the main difference is the red nose and the tail
on a "true" rummynose (which I have never seen) there is a pattern of yellow in the tail.
On the false rummynose the tail is larger and has a more defined black/white pattern.
on fireheads the red nose is less defined.
