Liberty molly (Poecilia salvatoris) Named after El Salvador where they occur. But theye also occur in Guatemala, Honduras, Panama and Nicaragua. It's not sure that outside El Salvador, that they've been introduced in the other countries or that they also originate from those countries.

Opened up a package today. I've ordered a small sculpture of a koi on a stand. When I opened up the package, I only got the stand and not the fish. The bag in the package was torn. The package itself was sealed perfectly. I've tried to contact the online shop but no reply yet.
