First is the suspected Steel Blue colouring up nicely.Yellowish fish is unknown by the seller. Third is small Apache and the rest are obvious.

The Cacs get a lil grumpy at feeding time.

Any ideas on yellowish fish. Was sold to retailer as Borelli but obviously not. I think its male by size??

Thanks again.

Well, I'm pretty sure the first fish (a male) is not A. sp. Steel-blue. The bowed vertical bars on the flanks are a classic feature of A. sp. Wangenflecken. The yellow fish is probably a female of the same species. This species usually shows a few pale stripes on the posterior part of the caudal. I can't see them here. the video is not good enough. Wangenflecken is one of my favorite 'beginner's apisto'. They stay small, are peaceful, and easy to breed in most water values below pH 7.5 & 300 ppm hardness.

Yellow looks like and behaves like a female Borelli to me.
