Apistogramma Macmasteri or Borelli?

[dids39]

i'm having some doubts on anothe fish that i've bouth, i'm sending you some picture os wath i thought it was Apistogramma Macmasteri female, i bought a couple of them, the male i'm absolutly sure that is a Macmasteri but i'm afraid that the female is an Apistogramma Borelli becouse they had this same species in the tank were the Macmasteri was. Can you help me?
Thank´s

Sure looks like a borellii female to me. I would ask the store to make sure to give you the right fish next time. If they carry those fish, they should know what they look like. Or someone there should know the difference. Hopefully they still have some of both species. Now just get a female MacMasteri and a male Borellii.

BTW the other fish in one of your pictures is agassizi DR. I don't think you mean it to be the MacMasteri but I am just double checking.

dids39,

WELCOME TO THE FORUM

Yes, that is a female borellii. However, as fishyboy mentions, you have her in a tank with a very nice male specimen of A. agassizii "Double red". If that is the other species in your LFS tank, it will be even easier to tell the difference between the females because the body shapes are so different.
