greetings to all

an online shop in my country sells Apistogramma “santa isabel” with the following picture:

what species are we talking about ? mendezi ?

they are sold 119€ the couple, they are wild, what do you think ?

The picture shows A. lineata, a species from the Rio Atabapo in Colombia.

lineata, is there a connection with santa isabel?

is there a connection with santa isabel?

Sometimes the trade names fishes after the export stations from which they came. So if the fish were collected by a Brazilian fischermen who brought them to Santa Isabel, this could be a possible explanation, however not a very likely one imo.
