A. Piaroa identify?

[MinQ.aqua]

Can I ask is this A. Piaroa A165? I bought a wild pair and don't know exactly where do they live in wild

A. piaroa is A164.
A165 is A. cf. piaroa (Rio Negro). Do you know the catch location? Does he sometimes show a large black blotch on the caudal peduncle?

large black blotch on the caudal peduncle

I just captured a photo of a male Piaroa, can you help me to identify it.

If the black blotch on the caudal peduncle is never larger than in this photo, in particular if it never extends into the upper half of the caudal peduncle, it's most likely A. piaroa (A164).

sorry to reopen an old thread. Are the catch location and blotch on the caudal peduncle the only differences between A164 and A165?
