I'm not sure these fish are what the Ifs said they are.

[Mrscbennett]

I was told the first one is a Gymno Geophagus Braziliensis, and the second one a Cichlosoma Multisplinosa.

How small is the fish on the right? It really doesn't look like Archocentrus multispinosus to me. It almost looks an Aequidens Pulcher at a glance. I would want to better understand size though.

Omg there both beautiful I have no clue what they are but I'll be waiting to hear.

Has the right fish coloration changed as it has settled in?

Can you get a side pick of the fish on the left?

 

[mikem691]

1st one looks correct Second looks like a blue acara but something is not right. May be the lighting.

 

[gilpi]

They just look very juvenile, especially the one on the right.

Geophagus (no gymno) braziliensis (pearl earth eater) and aequidens puncher (blue acara). Just a heads up, braziliensis get quite large and are pretty aggressive. Very different from the surinamensis-type geophagus like altifrons, abalios, pindare, etc

The fish on the right is about 2 1/2" the other is only about 1 1/2"

Yeah, I agree with the others, it is probably a blue acara.

The geo pics show a lot of red color in the fins. If it stays like that and gets more intense, so it could actually be sp. Bahia red, mine came in as brasiliensis when I had them.

I have the first fish...that's definitely a German Blue Ram. Beautiful! Can't help you with the other one though.

Na not a ram but the markings are similar That is def a Geophagus and not a Mikrogeophagus ramirezi

I don't think that is a GBR or any other form of Ramirezi

 

[African Lover]

Ok ok...I see the difference now that I looked at the other pics enlarged. Oops...
