The pic I see is clear enough:
Chromaphyosemion bitaeniatum probably from the Lagos area...
Doesn't matter what the location is as it is still a nice fish.
Suggested name: Chromaphyosemion bitaeniatum "Tailand CI-01"
We got the same fish last year from Nigeria. All of them now are
belly up. They didn't take the trip too well...
Distinguishing features: full orange tail. two lateral brown stripes
which are clear. On most other Chrom. species the stripes are
blurred by iridescence or broken up.
Just my $0.0025 (2c South African)
