Yes, they can easily be mistaken as Linkias as the author of the link above also states.

I don't target feed them and I've never watched them eat anything. They crawl on the glass a lot so they must be eating the film of algae. They seem easier to keep than Linkias and Fromias. I haven't been able to keep Linkias and Fromias alive for any length of time. Whereas with these, the first one I've had for 5 months so far and the other for 4 so far and they don't show any signs of rotting.
