Hello, can someone help with the identification of these fish and whether they are the same race and sex.

Mac2 is a male, Mac1... Possibly too. Still quite young it seems.
Both are colour breeds of A. macmasteri. And the term "race" is not fitting. We're talking of species, types, variants and breeds here.

Het zwart in de borstvinnen v mac1 doet mij toch vermoeden dat het hier om een vrouwtje gaat. Ik heb vaker vrouwtjes met rood in de staart gezien dan mannetjes met zwart in de borstvinnen. Afwachten tot "ze" wat groter wordt.

Dank je wel, ze loopt nu alleen en ik wacht. Ze is ook heel geel, zoals ze meestal is.

Het is echt jammer van de kleurvarianten. Ze misleiden je de hele tijd. Het kun een vrouwtje zijn, maar ik heb het te vask gezien dat het was een sneaker mannetje.

(And for the English speakers without translator tool installed: we are going back and forth how it still could well be a female, while I added it could be a sneaker male.)

Blijft idd moeilijk, sexen, maar door de jaren heen voor aquaria gezeten met soms honderden apistoos was dit voor mij altijd een leidraad.
De jonge mannetjes kunnen aardig misleiden maar zwart in de bortstvinnen "faken" kunnen ze niet. Vrouwtjes daarintegen kunnen het niet "uitzetten".

Hello Martin, though I am not sure if I am adressing the right person, I still hope I am. I got 2 trios of Apistogramma psammophila from you some time ago. I was lucky to breed them, too, but, unfortunately, I got mainly males, 15, and only 2 females. That's why today, I have only three males left.
Kind regards, Michael (Hagen-Hohenlimburg)
He recalled that General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam Central Committee and President Tô Lâm had praised these achievements, noting that institutions are no longer the main bottleneck to development, with challenges now lying in implementation.
Re-designing and starting a new fish room all over again. This time we'll have many more Apistsogramma species. We are expanding.
