    Species id request ?

    I would probably put the other female into the tank with these two and would closely watch what happens.

    Species id request ?

    Yes the caudal spot in A. wolli males is supposed to be round(ish) (but of course, caudal spots can be quite variable). Apart from this, A. wolli usually show two rows of abdominal spots, often along the whole body, whereas Ladislao show some streaks/spots which are mostly restricted to the...

    Don't know what type and genders apisto I got

    They are both females and I see nothing that speaks against them being A. macmasteri.

    Species id request ?

    Are these the same fish as in this thread? If so, I can't say anything else than I already did there. If it's other fish: the male seems to have a patterned caudal fin, so it can be any of the Ladislao-like species with the exception of A. sp. Amaya. The female doesn't show enough black markings...

    D39 male or female ?

    I still think that it's a male, because I have never seen a female showing any red markings on the gill cover, let alone at this small size.

    which species

    Sometimes the trade names fishes after the export stations from which they came. So if the fish were collected by a Brazilian fischermen who brought them to Santa Isabel, this could be a possible explanation, however not a very likely one imo.

    The picture shows A. lineata, a species from the Rio Atabapo in Colombia.

    Any experience with a. norbeti ?

    Don't worry it's A. norberti. Like the display of all black markings, that of the zigzag abdominal stripes too, depends on the mood of the fish.

    ID please!! So recently i bought some apistos from an importer who deals in Wild fish. He sold me 6 very small specimens as "Iniridae"

    No, your fish are a macmasteri-complex species.

    ID please!! So recently i bought some apistos from an importer who deals in Wild fish. He sold me 6 very small specimens as "Iniridae"

    Can be almost every macmasteri-complex species.

    Apistos with spiky fins

    A. piaroa may also be interesting for you: https://www.ciklid.org/artregister/art.php?ID=2383

    Question about difference between Apistogramma sp.Breitbinden and Apistogramma Megaptera

    A. sp. Breitbinden is the same species as A. piaroa. "Breitbinden" is just the common name of the species that was in use before it had been scientifically described as A. piaroa.

    Question about difference between Apistogramma sp.Breitbinden and Apistogramma Megaptera

    If you mean a large black blotch on the caudal peduncle, this is only seen in A165: A164 can show a black blotch on the caudal peduncle too, but it is usually smaller, less pronounced and restricted to the area below the lateral band.

    Apisto. Eunotus Female ID

    I still think they are A. sp. Nadelstreifen or the very closely related A. cf. sp. Nadelstreifen/A. sp. aff. eunotus (Colombia).

    Apisto. Eunotus Female ID

    After looking at the pictures again, I think it's actually an eunotus-subcomplex species closely related (or identical) to A. sp. Nadelstreifen. Like these fish, A. sp. Nadelstreifen often show prominent vertical bars, but rarely (if ever?) split bars. Caudal spot and coloration of the caudal...

    Apisto. Eunotus Female ID

    I agree with you Mike that it's likely a regani-complex species, but apart from that, I see no particular similarity to A. paulmuelleri at all. If these fish are in fact frrom Peru, I think that it's an entirely new species. @apistonoob99 do you have any information on the exact catch location?

    yes

    I see only males in your pictures.

    The video is by far to bad, to be able to ID these fish.
