Pretty little fish.
I wonder how long it will be before the Apistogramma genus gets split? Some of the differences now being listed between species are borderline for a genus.

Yeah i can see what you mean. And i can't see how it is in the cacatuoides complex though, the different head shape, moutbrooding etc. This doesn't look like an average apisto, i could say the same for several others such as eunotus and Nijsseni in my opinion; they just look different (In shape and finnage i mean)
