ID and Sexing Help Please

[unlikelyfloof]

Both of these fish were sold as A. Agassizii but I don’t think that’s actually what they are. One is a little larger than the other but I am thinking they are both female? I’d say they’re about an inch and a half and an inch in size. I’m assuming they will continue to grow and color up? Any help with ID, age to maturity and sex would be so appreciated.

Yep….both kinda look like girls. Maybe somewhere in the neighborhood of cf geisleri/cf taeniata/cf reticulosa?

Your fish could be some resticulosa-complex species but since they were sold as agassizii, they are most likely A. sp. Steel-blue. For some inexplicable reason these are often wrongly sold as agassizii or borellii.

I'd expect to see some sort of spot pattern even on female Steel-blue. It does appear to be a resticulosa-complex species. Based on the bowed vertical bars on the smaller species (2nd photo) it's possible that you have 2 female A. sp. Wangenflecken.

Where did you get these fish? I have some similar ones I got recently that also seem to be resticulosa complex
