I might not be 100% correct on this, but to me fires appear to have a more creamy colored appearence, head markings and they get lighter as they grow.
I have a very light colored normal and a new fire. They look completely different to me. Since one is in quarantine and the other isn't, here are pictures of each.

Light Normal:
I have seen a lot of fires lately that just don't scream fire to me, so I don't really know how to tell a poor quality fire from a normal. If it looks normal I wouldn't buy it, even if it came from a Black eyed lucy breeding.
