Hello all,
I recently got hold of a “pair” of A. Ortegai Nanay and I’m not quite sure if this one is a female or not. She is more blue under aquarium light, but I flashed a light onto her side in the picture. Any help would be amazing as there aren’t many left at the shop.
I can get more pictures later today, this was all I mange’s to get.

Cheers Nik,

Looks like a female from what I can see, but a complete photo of the fish would be helpful. BTW ignore the "Nany" part. The fish are not from the Rio Nanay, but the Rio Ampiyacu.

Thank you, maybe I will be lucky to skip getting two more I also managed to get a few more pictures, hope it helps solidify the ID better.

Oh, and I’ll skip the nanay part, your expertise is the best! Thank you.

Hello Martin, though I am not sure if I am adressing the right person, I still hope I am. I got 2 trios of Apistogramma psammophila from you some time ago. I was lucky to breed them, too, but, unfortunately, I got mainly males, 15, and only 2 females. That's why today, I have only three males left.
Kind regards, Michael (Hagen-Hohenlimburg)
He recalled that General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee and President Tô Lâm had praised these achievements, noting that institutions are no longer the main bottleneck to development, with challenges now lying in implementation.
Re-designing and starting a new fish room all over again. This time we'll have many more Apistsogramma species. We are expanding.
