The first is a male A.atahualpa, the second is a female Pebas group fish.. Im not expert on these but id guess A.sp 'Roca eterna'

 

[Mike Wise]

I think Ste is correct on both fish.

Not so great Darrel... No one sees just how many fish i manage to kill

Have you any breeding pairs of cacatuoides I can buy got cash waiting and can meet you next Tuesday for them willing to pay good money for them

 

[matthew]

ok, thank you !! and this one ??

 

[Mike Wise]

Still a bit small, but my guess is that it is a young male A. sp. Roca Eterna.

 

[matthew]

ok , thanks , my wholesaler said me it is sp pebas ...

 

[matthew]

i bought this pairs like atahualpo !! some one can confirm ??

 

[FIL]

For me, it's not allpahuayo . No interruption of the lateral band near of the caudal peduncle

 

[matthew]

non Nicolas !! atahualpo ^^

 

[FIL]

Oups!!! mal lu , i know atahualpa but not atahualpo

 

[matthew]

I know I made a mistake! but it does not tell me if it's right...

 

[Mike Wise]

ok , thanks , my wholesaler said me it is sp pebas ...

The caudal patch doesn't look like that on A. sp. Pebas; more like that on A. sp. Papagei and A. sp. Roca Eterna. Of course it's always hard to ID a fish from only 1 photo.

 

[Mike Wise]

Yes, the fish are A. atahualpa (or maybe very young A. huascar, which I doubt). The photos aren't good enough to sex the fish for certain. The first photo looks like a male to me; I don't know about the other fish.

 

[matthew]

ok , and this one ??

 

[Mike Wise]

I'm not absolutely sure because the photos show so few diagnostic black markings.

 

[matthew]

it is better ?
