Got my dream candies!!

I have been looking for a while for a Candy basslet and finally got it ....no one but two of them.
I found a new LFS and they had them eating like champs and looking super healthy.
They are doing great and eating just 2 hours after placing them in my tank.
They are very shy but I will try to take better pictures.

Looks like a swissguard basslet, Liopropoma rubre, to me. I may be mistaken because pics can be deceiving. Candies have a black spot lined in electric blue on the dorsal fin, and two on the tail. A good looking fish none the less.

They are candies for sure. I have the swissguard basslet and the coloration is very, very different in person.
Your description of the candy basslet in exactly what I have.
They have the swissguard at the LFS for a quarter of the price of the candy.
