Tropheus Cherry spot fry VS. Tropheus Purple Rainbow fry

Hello,

I recently purchased WC Tropheus Purple Rainbows and was given several fry as a gift with the purchase. The seller advised there were several Cherry Spots mixed in with the Purple Rainbow fry. My question is......can anyone tell me how to tell the difference? some are darker and some have more pronounced stripes. My guess would be the darker one are the Cherry Spots.....any help? thanks in advance.
