Text Appearing After Image:
Apistogramma agassizi The Amazon In South America the cichlids, in untold numbers of species, are analogous to the sunfishes of the northern continent and in general surpass them in those features dear to the aquarist—interesting breeding habits and attractive colors. Not the least is Apistogramma agassizi (syn. Heterogramma agassizi) of the Amazon. Here is a gorgeously colored fish which possesses the added attractions of small size (about 2 inches) and the character- istic breeding habits of the family. With any species of fish it is of prime importance to the aquarist to know the distinguishing features of the sexes. In this connection our subject is eminently satisfactory. The male averages larger than his consort, is much more brightly colored and, above all, bears a tail fin differing in contour. The central rays are prolonged after the manner of Polya- canthus cupanus, whereas in the female the rays are alike in length, giving the fin an unbroken outline. The color pattern is quite complex, and is persistent and not merely donned dur- ing the nuptial season. From the head to the tip of the caudal rays runs a black- brown stripe. Posteriorly this is bor- dered by scales of bright blue, while for- ward and above appears yellow. From the eyes extend lines of blue. The black is dark violet and the abdomen light rose. The dorsal fin is violet and bluish white
