My guess now: Apistogramma Eunotus!

SOrry for all the posts about this, but these guys have changed color/size so much I have to re-evaluate my thinking on what fish they are.

Thanks!

Augh! Now i think caetei! papagei! rio acre! What ARE they?? They don't seem to fit into any group i have seen, maybe these new picture will help you guys 8O.

BTW, whatever they are.....anyone interested in trading in the near future? I have 50+ freeswimming fry, and am gonna sell a lot of them when they are are 1 inch.

My guess is your guess. I think you either have Eunotus or a Eunotus group fish. The look of the male behind the pland and the female suggest Eunotus. But, most significantly is the "small female" (which I think is a male) has the sub-lateral stripes. All together these thing and the previous (regardless of my comment previously about the lips) suggests Eunotus.

Yea I found this new one: apistogramma sp. "Pebas". It's like in the eunotus group i think, and looks pretty darn similar as well.

apistogramma sp. "Blaukopf_Gelbflossen" anyone heard of this fish?

I think that is a female, the old female had the exact same coloring before suddenly laying eggs.

Doesn't really look like Pebas to me, but i can't tell from the pics(male) for sure. Generally, you can't put alot of weight on the fact that the female looks similar. There are just too many female apistos that the best IDers would loose their mind trying to tell apart from 5 other species.
