Hey all,

I bought a pair of A. piaroa, or that was what the store labelled them as. And after some time to settle in, I found that the two fish look quite different to each other, they also look like two males in my eyes, possibly A. personata for the smaller one and A. piaroa for the bigger? Any ideas of what they could be? The store also had A. personata for sale, so maybe a mixup could have happened?

Thanks, Nik

The smaller one isn't A. personata. The only thing to worry about might be it's sex, I too tend to believe that it's a male.
