We just received this beautiful dwarf cichlid from Peru. The determination of the
several phenotypes of Apistogramma is not easy at all. Currently most persons that
work with Apistogramma tend to the point of view that the fish that looks almost
identical, but has blue lips represents the "real" A. juruensis, while the fish with
the yellow lips and the black spot on the chin is called "cf. juruensis Black Chin".

May that be as it is: the fish are extremely beautiful and easy to keep Apistogramma.
The fish imported now show a very attractive pattern in the ventral fins. Mlaes
become around 7 cm, females around 4 cm long.

For our customers: the fish have code 622723 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Apistogramma: ancient Greek, means "with unreliable line". It is not known
wether the lateral line organ or the pattern is meant. juruensis: refers to the type
locality, the Rio Jurua,

Common name: Blackchin Apistogramma

Acestrorhynchus cf. minimus

The barracuda tetras (Acestrorhynchus) from South Americ are beautiful predators,
which are much sought for among specialized aquarists with large tanks. Several of
the approximately 14 species accepted currently become 20 to 40 cm long, but there do
exist also small species in the genus that become never larger than 10 cm.

We received from Peru one of these dwarfish species. The pattern and the low number
of scales correspond very well with the species described as A. minimus. However,
that species is not listed so far to occur in Peru, so we decided to name the fish
"cf. minimus".

Acestrorhynchus are comparably peaceful predators and should be kept in schools. A.
minimus becomes only 6-8 cm long and so the species fits very well in a 200 litre
tank. On the other hand the tank should not be much smaller, as barracuda tetras are
active hunters and thus need some space. They should be fed with small feeder fish.

For our customers: the animals have code 202254 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Acestrorhynchus: from ancient Greek, means "needle snout". minimus: Latin,
means "the smallest".

Suggestion of a common name: Dwarf barracuda tetra

Trachelyichthys sp. "Tapajos"

11/297482-trachelyichthys-sp-tapajos.jpg> 

We currently received this cute driftwood catfish from Brazil. Initially we thought
all fish of the import would belong to the same, highly variable coloured species;
but in the meantime we found that in fact two species were involved, namely T. sp.
"Tapajos" and Auchenipterichthys punctatus.

Most probably Trachelyichthys sp. "Tapajos" becomes as big as the similiar species T.
exilis: 6-8 cm. The latter species has already been bred in aquaria. The fish have an
internal fertalization and the female lays the sticky eggs without the presence of a
male.

Trachelyichthys are peaceful, night active catfish that feed readily on any usual
type of fishfood.

For our customers: the fish have code 297482 on our stocklist. Please note that we
exclusively supply the wholesale trade.

Lexicon: Trachelyichthys: ancient Greek, means translated "extreme fish"; however,
the name rather refers to the close relationship to the genera Trachelyopterus and
Trachelyopterichthys. exilis: Latin, means "weak".

Suggestion of a common name: Tapajos bug catfish
