What you got is a Z. desjardini, I am sure you know that already. Is it a Desiadini from Djibouti area as opposed to other area of their range, I do not know since I really don't know the differences between this population vs. the rest of the species from elsewhere.
What is the suppose differences between Djibouti Desjardini vs. non Djibouti Desjardini that command such a large price different?
It is clear to me that the picture on the website is not the fish you got. However, I do not think that the picture is 'WYSIWYG". It is true that it may eventually grow to have the color similar to the picture posted. Is it a "WYSIWYG" type of sale?
BTW, don't worry too much about the face. It darkens with age and with mood. Put a mirror in front of the tank and the face color will darken a lot.
