Is it a natural color for a heros ... Or is it a selection made by hobbyist ... it was bought in Deutchland (hobby zoo) as sp. blue ... Rest of pictures ... http://picasaweb.google.fr/Meeki67/PonteHerosSpBlue#
Beautiful and valid female of Heros Apendiculatus, lately many consider them combine with Efasciatus species, but they do look very different in my eyes. You lucky to have her. Alex
There is bunch, but it depend of the fish feeling. In the link, you can find pictures of the male : I have added a pciture of the pair. This deep blue is due of babies presence.
