You're right. 3.5-4". 1 in stock.

Whilst both fish look like fila, I find it funny that the one listed as fila looks most like capa of the two.

Capapretum looks like this,
-- shorter and blunter snout,
-- larger spots,
-- front and head heavy unbalanced (when small)
-- larger less balanced caudal peduncle and fin:
