Hi again. Back again. Photos still bad but hopefully a bit better for identification, sexing etc.
2 of these fish bought as ortegai, 2 as peru purple.
Can anyone positively identify a male fish?

This looks to me like A. cf. ortegai Pebas/Morado A89. I have a WC pair of those which were imported from Peru as A. spez. purple. Unfortunately pictures do not allow me to positively sex the fish, but my best guess is, that they are all female.
