ID: Is this an apisto?? - Dario dario

[AA24]

Hi..

Can anyone confirm that this is an Apisto.. If "yes" which is it.. Also, I think it is a male.. is that right..??..

much thanks..

No, Dario dario. Left fish looks like a female (or a juvenile male), right one is a male.

What i don't understand is... if you don't even know what fish this is, how do you tell if its a male???

Anyway, its not an apisto..
Commonly known as a scarlet badis
Dario dario (Badis bengalensis)

I made a guess because the color is more vibrant than another.. which was just Grey...

thanks QUIXOTIC for the ID (and the title change).. had to ask as I need to find it a new home.. I suspect that it is eating a lot of my baby shrimp..

much thanks..
