Hideki, Welcome to the Apisto Mailing List. I have not seen the name A. sp. Rio Xie, but new fish & new names appear every day. Maybe it is A. sp. Rio Xingu (see Yamazaki book "Tropical Fish Collection 6 South American Dwarf Cichlid, page 111). This is a beautiful book. I only wish I could read Japanese as well as you write English. Maybe you can help me sometime! Mike Wise bitaenian wrote: > Hello all, I'm a Hideki Kashiwadani, from Japan.
