Mike, what is A. sp. "roca eterna" (eternal rock, for non spanish speakers)?????

P.S. @Mike:

A. sp. Roca Eterna (Rock of Ages - an old song, long beloved of many Christian congregations) is a species that I got from local collectors while I was in Peru last October. I have no idea why it has this name. There is a Protestant missionary organization in Latin America that is called Roca Eterna. Perhaps it has a mission near the collecting locality. I thought that it was A. sp. Papagei (A92) when I first saw it. The females have the same double caudal patch as A. sp. Papagei (A91 - the colorful form). The males look much like A92, but the caudal fin is more square. I have a very large male, 3¼"/8 cm TL so the tail might be only due to age. Unlike A. sp. Papagei (A91), which occurs in the Río Ampiyacu, I was told that this fish comes from a different river system farther to the west. My female has eggs right now, so hopefully I will get more specimens. I will check to see if they develop a square tail when young. If they do, then they probably are a species separate from A. sp. Papagei (A91). If not, then they probably are A92. Since they do not come from the same system as Papagei, they might be a different species anyway.

Mike Wise, what is your favorite?

I think that I've answered this before. My favorite apisto has always been Apistogramma wickleri - a BIG blue domestic color form of A. steindachneri that hasn't been seen in the hobby for almost 30 years. Males of this form would grow to over 4¼"/12cm TL. The entire body was sky blue except for some white on the belly. The orange streamers on the tail and dorsal fin was more red than orange. To top it all off, it was a very peaceful fish and easy to breed. I even had a pair unexpectedly breed in a bare 5 gallon aquarium with 8, ¾"/2cm Red Platys (Xiphophorus maculatus). The Platys were never harmed, but they never had a chance to get near the Wickleri fry. The Wickleri morph just disappeared as new wild species appeared in the early 1980s.

I don't like this name. I'm glad that you at least capitalized Maciliensis to indicate it isn't a valid species name. My questions is: do you have A. cf. trifasciata (Río Guapore) A206 or A. erythrura (aka A. sp. Mamoré) A207?

To be perfectly honest i was unaware that maciliensis wasnt a valid name?? Its A207 A erythrura...I think?? Its a czech bred fish with damage to the males scales(twisting) plus the tail isnt as red as it should be!!..ill see what the fry turn out like?

Rolo, what is Nannacara sp. "Mana"?

Hi,

this is a Nannacara species we caught in the Mana System in French Guyana.
It's similar to N. taenia (which is located very different) or maybe N. sp. Soumourou. Maybe I can post some pictures soon.

regards,
Rolo
