Apisto "Purple" ID

[gratts]

Hey guys.
An ID on these little beauties would be great..listed as Apistogramma Purple on import list. Came from Peru or Columbia, forget which now.
Quality not brilliant as pictures from mobile, fish are also a bit washed out (apart from the female!)
Attachments got me confused, too tired.
Link to pictures here, sorry:

Coming from Peru, Apistogramma sp. Pebas (also listed as Morado or Purple for starters).

Hey Andrew, thanks for that
Guess you're pretty much 100% on that?
Are they a fairly typical dwarf with regards water conditions etc?

Morado is the Spanish word for purple. "A. sp. Morado/Purple" is a color morph of A. sp. Pebas. The species occurs in the Río Ampiyacu around the town of Pebas, Peru. The water is a clear/blackwater mix so the aquarium should have soft water at a pH around 6 to ensure breeding success. Male can be fairly aggressive toward non-breeding females, so make sure that there are many hiding places.
