hey everyone! so i got some juvies from Apistodave along w a friend a while back and unfortunately only 2 of mine made it which we thought were most likely females. my friend gave me two more out of his group and out of the 4 i ended up w three. these are the apache/sp masquen apistos

sssssssso, i know my photography skills are not the best, but you all think these look like masken? im afraid my friend mixed them or something and i ended up with something else. the one in the back i think is a female and the one in the front a male, anyone agrees? sigh.. she colors up all the time but never seen a single fry.

To tell the truth, none of the fish look like A. sp. Masken/Apache, which shows a long vertical caudal spot that covers most of the caudal peduncle. The photos really don't provide enough information to say what they are.

Kind of looks like 2 females (yellow bodies and thicker black margin on the ventral fins-lower paired fins) and a male. Possibly A. sp. Pebas. But clear side shot pics would help a lot for an ID.

Between you. You must know which species you bought. Even though they got mixed up. if we new the species you got it would help.
