New Brazil Fish In

Biotoecus sp.

Apistogramma rupununi Rio Branco

Apistogramma cf. uaupesi (?)

Pricing will be posted at www.aquaticclarity.com in a week or so once I see how everything settles in. I should also have confirmed ID's by then. (These pictures were taken a few hours after the fish arrived)

No elizabethae?

No elizabethae?

Nope, they subbed the rupununi. So a refund is needed unless I have something else you want instead.

Ok. I'm interested in those Biotoecus sp. Rio tapajos now. Haha.
I'll let you know Jeff.

Biotoecus sp. Rio tapajos are nice lookin I'm really leaning towards them too

 

[aquaticclarity]

Mike Wise thinks they are Biotoecus opercularis based on my poor pictures.

 

[stud]

they do seem like biotoecus opercularis to me aswell.
maybe caught around the santarem or tapajos area.
but overall i still like them.

B. opercularis occurs from the Rio Negro/Madeira east to the Rio Tapajós, so they could come from several places. If the exporter says they're from Santarém (export station - not the actual collecting locality), then they probably are.
