Hey everyone, first post on this forum, been keeping fish for 15 years. I got this pair the other day from lfs but they didn't know what breed it was so i got it for a good price . But i have been looking everywhere and i can find it out. He has a rust orange color body and is much darker now then the pic and blue/green iridescent scales near his face. Any idea?

Frank nailed it! Female A. atahualpa. All females are often offered as A. so. Orange out of Peru.
