There are no clear lines between the two groups but, hets will tend to have dark boundries around the tail blotches. Homozygous or supers will have a reduced amount of darkness in the same area. All the way down to none at all. So, for example if you have a pile of 9 babies that are 33% supers, you might be able to piuck out one or two that were probable supers.

The following pics are ghosts, salmon plus Anery but they show the point:

Not the best pic but you can see the darkness around the last tail blotch. This ghost has a bit of a tail stripe so has fewer tail blotches. You can see the darkness, this is a het Hypo/anery



This one has almost no darkness around the tail blotches and is a probable Homozygous hypo/anery
