Apostogramma cacatuoides ?

Have had (I assume him) for a little while now and am still not sure what type and sex it is… can anyone identify- thanks in advance

Looks a lot like the wild colouration of A. cacatuoides and yes, a male.

A. cacatoides also gets my vote. I sold a lot of the red variants while working in aquatics, but I always thought the wild types are far more beautiful.

Yes, a nice male form of A. cacatuoides, What hobbyists call 'A, cacatuoides' is actually a superspecies composed of many different but similar looking species.
