Can anyone identify this apistogramma species?
Hey everyone, I'm trying to figure out what type of Apistogramma I have here - does anyone know the species, and if it's a male or female?

I'm not familiar with the specific species, but based on the appearance, I'd say it's a male. The long fins are a dead giveaway - females typically have much shorter fins.

That's a male Apistogramma hongsloi, by the way.

I agree with @limer, it's indeed a male Apistogramma hongsloi. This species thrives in soft water conditions, and it belongs to the mcmasteri group, which is worth researching to understand its specific needs and requirements.
