    Questions on Dwarf Pike Cichlids?

    Hi everyone, I've been looking online for some general information about dwarf pikes, I like them. The problem is most of the ones I see get too big for me to house with my Apisto's. Are there any really small pikes around? I couldn't find any info, but im sure there is. The smallest I've...

    NEW TANK 120GAL :O

    Hey guys, I'm back from a long time away from here. I've recently stumbled upon a huge 100-120 gallon aquarium for free. It comes with a stand and a cover. I'm going to be setting it up soon, the last owners have given me a nice amount of small/fine rocks for a substrate and some...

    Basic Tips on Breeding Apistos?

    Hi all, I'm getting ready to start another tank, one specified for Apisto's only. I'd like to try my hand at breeding them. I've been reading up on things and I hear that the minimum sized tank they'd breed in is a 15gal, they like live foods, water parameters arent so demanding (I think). I...

    Nuchal humps?

    Thats something I was honestly curious in, I think it would look awesome if a super small cichlid had a huge lump on his head. But not if it means overfeeding it until it's overweight :P

    Nuchal humps?

    Today I heard at my job that some Cichlids get Nuchal Humps - Much like Frontosa, Flowerhorn, Convicts, etc. I was curious if any Apistogramma's get them as well?

    Help sexing one of my "Blue Steel".

    Hmm, It may be hard to get that photo especially of the second one. Apparently it developed Ich so it's fins are clamped. I'm treating the tank already so hopefully in two days I'll be able to get better results. The first one is really tiny. I want to say an inch. The second one is about 1.5...

    Help sexing one of my "Blue Steel".

    Hi all, I just recently bought another Blue Steel my job just got from a new shipment - Apart from all the others that came, this one looked from what I've read to be a female. I went and introduced the 2nd one into the tank, but it's clearly bigger than my male, it chases him around and doesnt...

    WTB Smallest Apisto

    They look awesome! I realize that I should probably just get one or two female "Steel Blue"' Apisto's and see if I can breed them with my male. Whats the minimum size tank I can keep most apisto's in and they would actually breed in as well? Right now I have this baby Blue Steel in a 1.2gal tank...

    WTB Smallest Apisto

    I currently have one Scarlet Badis in my 15gal tank, it was a gift from a friend. That one doesn't mess with my fire red shrimp. @DaRe , The main reason I want a small Apistogramma is because I like Cichlids but I have a very small tank and I'd like to keep a pair of extremely small ones to...
