保育: Apistogramma elizabethae 被評鑑為國際自然保育聯盟瀕危物種紅皮書名單中的 (LC) 無危 (2018). Considering the remoteness of its distribution, Apistogramma elizabethae and its sympatric species should remain safe in the near future; what remains to be determined is the impact of the collections of wild specimens for the hobby on some of the most sought-after populations.
