I would like a second opinion on what these two ficus elasticas are, I thought the one on the right was my “ruby” but I bought the one on the left the other day and it also said ruby.

Just going off what mine that looks like the one on the left was labeled, I’d say it’s Tineke

My guess is that once it gets more sun and is established, it will turn more pink. I know for my sandy rose succulent, a little stress actually brings out the pink. Though I wouldn’t recommend that for your plant without further research.
