I just go these guys, I asked for 2 fem. and a male. He had them listed as A juruensis. However, after letting them get adjusted to the new surroundings their colours are comming out and it looks like I may have all males. I looked into how to sex them and it looks like I have a completely different species than they were listed as.
The pictures aren't the best, but any input would be greatly appreciated.

You should read the answers given there...

On these pictures you are able to identify a FISH, not more ;)

greetings,
Rolo

I posted some better pics, it's not exactly easy trying to take pictures of shy, adolescent apistogrammas in a natural setting.

better???

I'm sorry.... but I still can see only a very small, unsharp fish ;-)

I know, it's not easy to make pictures. But with these kind of pictures it's not called "identifying" what we can do..... it's called "wild guesses".

greetings,
Rolo

They were listed as juruensis, but they look nothing like it. I've looked all over the net and I'm 99.9% sure it's Eunotus. I'll try and take some more pictures later to clarify with some of you.

Hi I didn’t know if you still have any of the Apistogramma Cuipeua?
Would be interested if so.
