Yes. Just as Linke/Staeck says about iniridae, ..."abdominal stripes which may appear also as sooty area on the posterior belly area... They are however not visible in every state of excitement." Assuming my group is iniridae, I am keeping them correctly--mostly r/o water with a pH in the 4's. I have seen a male "display" as he extends his fins--similar to the one shown in Mayland/Bork. When I get the time, I'll set up to get some shots of this displaying. --Randy Mike & Diane Wise wrote: > Randy, > > It sure looks like A. iniridae except that it doesn't have the gibbiceps-like > diagonal abdominal bars below the lateral band.
