i may be wrong and maybe this is just a supermale with females present, but the ones from vanuatu are more like the african ones with more yellow in them...

Nice video. You're right. Just like other fairies the vibrant colors will only show through when a supermale is kept with other females or less dominant males. The ones we have are indeed vanuatu and the yellow on the dorsal and anal fins are showing, just not as vibrant yet because the conditions that will bring forth the colors are not met yet.
