Looks like two different individuals to me. First phokto of one individual, seccond two photos of the second individual. I suggest separating them and posting separately. Second two look like U. lotrix. First photo appears to be U. pulchelloides

You are probably right. I think one left and another one arrived and I did not notice. I will separate them. Thank you.
