I bought this fish under the name Apisto Inka50 wild Peru. However, it doesn't look like those i saw in the pictures.

What do you guys think??

Inka50 = Apistogramma baenschi

Males will have a red band around the outer edge of the caudal fin and extensions olong the front half of the dorsal fin, females don't show these features but have very distinctive dark markings on the rear half of the body (vertical bars).

Based on that, your fish isn't A. baenschi, very difficult to tell from those images but I am reminded of A. norberti???

Is it the same fish in both pictures? The first pic is very difficult to determine because it's too out of focus. The 2nd pic shows a fish which could be A.norberti I think. We could still use some better pics to be sure though ;)
