I've been stocking my 30L and picked up what I was told was a rainbow in a smokin deal a few weeks back. I don't think it is.
Further, have a guy over here on the western slope who I've gotten numerous rose bta s. I'm not sure they're rose.
What are some ways to tell a difference? Thanks!!

It's all in the color. Roses are about the same color throughout. Rainbows will have a greenish or bluish center, with bright orange or red tentacles, and purple tips. My profile pic is what a rainbow should look like.

Ya rose is mostly red in color even at the base but a rainbow will have blue/green in the base usually with red and orange in the tentacles. Then you have a sunburst which is basically rainbow colors plus bright yellow in the tips.
