I am aware of A. erythrura with either red or blue caudals but not a gold form. Can someone give information on this fish? Is this a wild variant?

This, obviously, is a commercial name. Without seeing photos, my guess is that it is one of the populations of A. erythrura from the middle Río Guaporé system. Like populations of A. trifasciata from the Guaporé, these populations often show a honey yellow color along the back, above the lateral band.
