Balsas livebearer (Poeciliopsis balsas) from Rio del Marqués, Balsas drainage, Mexico (Hubbs, 1926). Described by Rosen & Bailey, 1963.
Named for Río Balsas basin (Guerrero, México), where Hubbs believed it was apparently confined (also occurs in ríos Arteaga and Aguililla [Jalisco, Michoacán, Morelos, Puebla]).

I'm guessing quite rare in the hobby as there is not a lot of information on the net about them? The first picture you've captured shows some interesting colours - is it like that in life, or is it just the camera picking up a reflection?
