Hi, this is my first post, I request your assistance in identifying a small apistogrammas, from what I read here could be caetei Xingu, but not sure. Are 4 little fishes and acknowledge that the photos are bad, but I hope to be useful.
Also in other cases I have 2 nanacaras aquarium, what do you think?
Thank you very much, greetings from Mexico DF

Were these sold as "A. caetei-Xingu"? If so, then they most likely are a population of A. taeniata, possibly from the Rio Xingu. They definitely are not A. caetei or any member of the caetei-complex. They are a member of the resticulosa-complex. Your photos do not show enough characteristics to more precisely identify they species.
