Apistogramma diplotaenia a most unusual species
This dwarf cichlid is one of the most unusual members of the large genus Apistogramma. The very slim animals have a pattern of two longitudinal stripes. This is unique among Apistogramma and makes A. diplotaenia unmistakable.
Sadly this species is offered only very rarely. Currently we have both wild collected fish (see photos) and bred ones in stock. Our wild-caught males almost loose the double stripes in dominant or aggressive mood and get an orange-yellow band instead. But all in all in Apistogramma diplotaenia the females have the trousers on and are the more attractive fish, too.
For our customers: the fish have code 618642 (wild caught) and 618642 (bred ones) on our stock list. Please note that we exclusively supply the wholesale trade.
