Can't get a pic of the foot to show the verracue but the peek I got, they were a tan color. I'm thinking S. Helianthus ?

If so, will this be a good match for my (very aggressive) maroon goldbars?
 
Did it look like the below picture on the underside? If so then yes it is a S. Helianthus and I am pretty sure that it will eat whatever tries to be hosted.

I wouldn't let helianthus any where near my maroons, and I have some big old nasty maroons. IMHO, Helianthus is a wicked little beast that should be left in the ocean, unless they're being placed into a species tank. I feel my fish are much, much, much safer with my 16" haddoni in the tank, than they would be with a 4" helianthus.
 
Thank you so much.
The little guy will remain in the LFS.

Guess I'll have to let miss harriette continue her lovefest on my blue maxi-mini...
Maybe I should just purchase the largest most beastly bta I can find?
