Orinoco Cupid Cichlid (Biotodoma wavrini) - 2-3" Unsexed Chorro Bocon. Remarks: The Orinoco cupid cichlid ( Biotodoma wavrini ) is a rare relative of the ever-popular cupid cichlid ( Biotodoma cupido ) and the only other accepted member of the Biotodoma genus. They bear a heavy resemblance to the more common cupid cichlid. Both species display the same silver or tan body, black vertical band over the eyes, blue and red fins, blue spots and stripes on the face, iridescent blue-green sheen across the whole body, and a black spot on the back half of the fish. This makes the two species difficult, but not impossible, to differentiate. It has been noted that B. wavrini has a more elongated body and a more pointed snout compared to B. cupido , but this can be hard to tell without having one of each to compare. Instead, most look to the black spot on the back half o. Source: Imperial Tropicals live fish catalogue.
