To me this one is unfamiliar. It's presented at the website of Japanese importer Aquafin, and said to come from Rio Icana Kuiari, Colombia.

It looks like Tom's friend might be sneaking into Brazil.:wink: I must say that it appears to be a new species. The closest species to it (both in location and appearance) is A. sp. São Gabriel. Based on it's name, it comes from the upper Rio Içana, possibly above the Tunui Rapids(?). This area is in the Alto Rio Negro Indian Reservation.
