Is this a ture geophagus suranemsis?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nope no black stripe on the gill cover. Just a shiny greenish stripe
That rules out brachybrancus,Dicrozoster and winemilleri then.
I also think the black spot on its side is to big to be altifrons.
My guess is Abalios but I'm not sure.
I don't think it's the true surinamensis. If it was it would have probably cost you a lot of money.
Maybe ryansmith83 can chime in again,he seems to know his geos.

Another pic of the geo. Apparently the guy I got these from said he paid quite a bit of money for them from his friend who paid even more for them so I guess who knows. Would be cool to get a for sure positive ID on it though. I'm no expert on geos.
