Looking to do an Apisto setup, and the LFS had this, but they didn't have a label for its tank. Can anyone help ID this little guy?

You should try apistogramma.com as they have several well known experts that can identify - on the surface it looks like a mac but i'm not 100% sure.

apistogramma cacatuoides orange flash. Big male. easiest apisto to keep and breed IMO.

That's where my research lead me as well! I ended up picking him up and got him back home. A very cool fish with the most vibrant finnage I have seen.
Going to re-scape his current home to suit a more ideal setup for an apisto. I'll upload a photo once it's complete.
