Los Tuxtla San Andres, Veracruz
I was lucky enough to purchase a pair of F1 Tuxtla animals in 2021 from an importer in California. This locality looks remarkably different than the Lago de Peten Itza animals that are nearly bi-colored, and seldom available in the hobby. The Tuxtla animals originated some 500 miles Northwest of Lago de Peten Itza. The Tuxtla animals have a lower band count, thinner yellow bands and reduced black.
