I would not say going by the pattern would be the most accurate especially if say a monstertail hypo was used to create your tripple hets.

I would look at the tail blotches infront of the vent. If you can tell a hypo from a normal then you should be able to tell a moonglow from a snow. You are looking for the same difference .. the reduction of black pigment around the tail blotches just before the vent. In the case of a moonglow the 'black' will be more of a transulcent color. So basically when comparing a snow to a moonglow, you will see a distinguished boarder to the tail blotches just before the vent in a moonglow and a reduction of these boarders in a snow.

I dont like to get people upset by posting their picture, but look at a bunch of snow and moonglow pictures and you will see exactly what I am talking about.
