I have the opportunity to secure a few wild caught apistos and was wondering if anyone else was interested as there is min order quantities. There are 3 different ones I am currently looking at getting. Pucallup, Cacatouides and Pertensis.

Pucallup are $52 a pair, pertensis are $72 a pair and Cacatouides are $56 a pair.

Can you put some pics up of what the fish look like? I can't find anything on the pucallup and various results on google for pertensis.

 

I may be interested in a pair or two of pertensis but would also like to know who is doing the importing and indicative date that I would be able to receive them.

 

Thanks,

I couldnt find any reference to apistogramma pucallpa. The only pucallpa I have heard of are apistogramma cacatuiodes sp pucallpa and apistogrammoides pucallpaensis. However the pic you show doesn't look like either of these. With the double bar, is this a bitaeniata complex?

Lovely fish. Just be aware wild caught Apistos can be very territorial. Some wont be in with other fish at all. I must say i sm very keen though,

Sorry I haven't been on here lately. Pucallup are Cacatuoides Rio Neshuya but off this import list they are just down as Pucallup.

 

Stormfyre all my apistos are all bred in separate tanks. Have room for 45 pairs.

This import closed 23rd but i am all ready talking to another guy about another WC import direct from Peru, should know what we can get in the next few days and will keep you guys up to date
