Hi guys. I've been lurking here awhile & reading the articles, but finally decided to register in the hopes that you can help me with something.
I bought a pair of what were labeled "cobalt apisto agassizii", but am unable to find any reference to them. And of the pics I can find, the agassizii closest in appearance would be Tefe (based on the colouring on the face).
This is the male... here and here.
And I'm pretty sure this is a female (you can see how the dorsal fin is more rounded).
You can't really tell from the pics, but the male has a rounded tail, and there's no "V" of colour on it. They are still kinda young -- the male's about 2". At what age/size do apistos show their full colouring & fin development?
Are these even agassizii? Steel blues? The body of the male appears much bluer than any pics of steel blues I've seen. Any ideas what they could be? Also, does that look like a female to you? Or just a juvenile male?
Thanks!
