This is a name Aquarium Lima has used for several species. Apistogramma sp. Frank/franki will probably turn out to be A. sp. Mouthbrooder/Maulbrüter or A. sp. Pebas (Morado/Purple). They even pictured a highly altered A. elizabethae on their web site at one time. Without seeing the fish it will be hard to say what it is.

it does not resemble has these fish: the caudal fin is round, orange with a little blue at the beginning; there are reflections green blue on the covers; the first rays of the dorsal fin are not long; the anal fin is blue with points; the pelvic fins are blue and oranges; the general color of the body is white slightly blue.the general aspect ; the general pace of the body makes me think of the macmasteri (form of the mouth, beginning of the dorsal, forms body)
if it's can help you
