Hello, I got these three from a lfs but they had no idea what they were. Someone turned them in to the store and they were in there $1 bargain tank and I thought I would try to figure it out. Any idea guys? They get along fine and even hang a lot together. Thanks in advance for any help.

Looks like female A. cacatuoides. Interesting to see the "Super Red" on the tips of the caudal fin - mimics a wild type fish pattern. Usually A. cacatuoides are initially very shy if they are wild, so I would doubt they are, but you usually don't see that pattern IMO.

I am quite sure they are all three, tankbred Apistogramma cacatuoides, as wild females don't show colour in their fins.
