A couple of new acquisitions from the Amazon 2011

In fact, very nice Apisto and that caudal fin is something spectacular.

What about the short extension in the middle...isn't it long enough to "count"?

Do all of the males show this feature.? If not, my guess is that it is just an oddity.

We find many forms of Apistos. close to or related to A. urtagaei in the Madre de dios. All are slight variations on the basic "theme". I keep all of the locations separate in the same way I keep the Killies I catch, so that no mixing occurs until it is determined what these fishes all are in relation to one another. In the same way, we also find many different phenotyes of A. leullingi, that vary slightly from place to place. Were you able to get the "kosho-kosho" fishes back to Norway from Iquitos?
