Hi all,
I had these guys shipped to me as A. agassizii "Tefe Bauana" but I've since been told by someone that they may not be aforementioned Apisto. Could someone here please let me know what they're thoughts are regarding identification?

they look like agassizi tefe to me though which colour form or other naming you want to tack on i am not sure (does it even matter?)

i think if you search tefe you will find the wavy line produce by the scale pattern is the differentiating point for this form of aggie

Hi Andrew,
I was confident that it was but two people whose opinions I certainly respect weren't so sure so I thought I'd put it to the experts.
Thanks for your response.

There are two male A. sp. tefe in the photo... though the zig-zag pattern on the belly is NOT too clear. :)
