Description
One of the more popular Apistos, A. agassizii has been selectively bred to produce a multitude of different colour morphs. While still a small fish, these are one of the larger Apistogramma species, with males reaching up to ~3" in length. Their long, teardrop-shaped tails are distinctive among Apistos, and they make an extremely showy centrepiece for small community aquaria. The wild-type 'Alenquer' locale is blue and orange with bold white markings on the tail.
These are subadults ranging from about1-1.5" long. They are beginning to show sexual dimorphism.
