What apistogramma are these? Both came from a shipment of habrosus from Thailand. First 4 pictures are of one apistogramma and the other 4 another specimen. Occasionally, on the apistogramma in the murkier water, there is a dark band (fairy thin) that runs along the top of his dorsal fin.

If they were collected in the same area as C. habrosus , they are most likely macmasteri-group species.

I doubt it. Thailand means farmed fish. Or Thailand is a auto-correct mistake.

That's why I didn't wrote "since they came with C. habrosus...".

We will have to wait for the OP to clarify on the origin, then.

So, these fish came with a shipment of habrosus. Since they were mixed in, my thoughts were that these would probably have been wild fish since them being mixed in would be unlikely if they were farmed. So no, Thailand is not an autocorrect error, and I have no clue whatsoever as to where they might have actually came from

That's really unfortunate. Any chance to get more info from the wholesaler?

Probably not as i obtained these guys from my lfs, I could probably ask them but they might not have the info or don’t remember which wholesaler it was from
