Re: Apistogramma Uaupesi

[FBethea <poppycat_2000@yahoo.com>]

These tetras are found to be in the same collecting
areas as apistos.  However, I was under the assumption
that Crenuchidae spilurus and Poecilocharax weitzmani
are two different species.  Or did you mean that you
found single males of these two species?  Please tell
me where you are located.  I have been looking for
both of these for dithers for my apisto tanks for two
years now!

Hopeful,
Francine
