I don't know anything of this fish, could someone please help me?

I think that it is a member of Ap. eunotus complex, this is right?

Hi,

...never heard that fantasy name ;-)

it's obviously a species from A. eunotus complex, I would even guess it IS A. eunotus.

greetings,
Rolo

Hi, this is a very nice apisto!

Gongrat.

(It might be A. cf Eunotus "Orangetail", but I am not good at id-ing.)

 

[mervin]

have to agree wth both of them.....sure looks like a Eunotus orange tail.

esteban,

WELCOME TO THE FORUM

Well, I'll add another name to the proceedings. A. sp. "Orangeschwanz", which is the same thing as the others have said, A. eunotus "Orangeschwanz".

Baby-face probably comes from the eunotus characteristic of lightblue gill plate that is, are you sitting down!, baby blue :roll: . Who know what the reasoning is behind many of the names floating around. Nice fish though. Enjoy them.
