Hi all,
Puerto Narino are "rotpunkt" IMO. I've seen A. sp. rotpunkt under a number
of different synonyms through the years: as A. moae in a Cichlid News
article, A sp. "Schwarzsaum" as over-priced German imports, and countless
others from perhaps well-meaning, but less than eagle eyed aquarists.
Regardless, it's a great fish, probably one of the most adaptable and eager
to spawn apisto., great colors, big 'ol green lips on the males. A bit
frustrating though when you place an order for some new and exotic apisto.
only to find out it is a "rotpunkt",of which you have too many in the first
place.
