Ranch Concinnus'

Well, yeah. They are both western T. sirtalis' and they are both essentially identical on a genetic level. The only reason they look a little different is local evolutionary pressures (they have different ranges) have pushed their morphology in slightly different directions. Their behaviors and food preferences are the same since they both live in the same type of habitat and eat the same foods so the same behaviors have allowed both to survive.

My Sony camera captured a better photo of my male.
Then there is the female I will be pairing him up with.

The Blue Concinnus confuses me. Is it a morph or a normal?

Naturally occurring color phase.

What a difference separating these sexes out has made. It's probably just a numbers thing but feeding the two groups this morning was a breeze.
Very little conflict. The female are in a huge enclosure so the space is helpful at feeding time.
The males seem much more relaxed not having the monster females in there with them.
