    cacatoides or eunotus strain?

    hey guys. i picked a pair of apistogramma labelled eunotus/sp orange tail. i have read that these apistos can have a very varied colouration so i assumed they had bin selectively bred to get the strong colouration on the male. either way i am happy with them and i really do like them. just...

    hey mate. my mendezi are now sexable and pretty much ready to go but posting to canberra i would have no clue on how to go about it. i lost my female beanschi recently so the new bloodline would be welcomed but i dont think they get through customs unless sent via an importer. i would love to...

    F.s apistogramma beanchi females. Melbourne Australia

    Hey mate. My biggest problem with growing these guys out has bin that they keep breeding in my little grow out tank. Which always results in a few deaths So I try to move them on once they are sex able. I generally sell privately for $30 each (shops pay close to that and buy more than a pair) I...

    My Male apisto keeps attacking my female apisto, help :(

    Quite often a mirror is an important tool with an unbonded pair. Put it against one side of the tank and the male will get so into flaring at himself he gives the female time to calm down. All in all though. If she looks really stressed. Seperate them. Try again another time. This is all just my...

    My Male apisto keeps attacking my female apisto, help :(

    Give her plenty of hiding spots. I had a pair of agasizzis do the same thing. I kept separating them again and again. Same thing happened everytime I put them back together. If u give her enough places to hide she will get in the mood and lay eggs. Table will turn. Lol. She's probably gonna kill...

    Best method of matching perameters for w ch on dry tank

    I don't have the option of using water from the main tank because the fry are still in the main tank (newly hatched) but once I move them to a grow out that's the way I'll be going I think. As for processing the water to be of the same value. How do u process it without adding any ph down...

    Dither Fish

    I use pencil fish. They are fast enough to get away (most of the time) but don't really bother to even look at fry. I recently picked up a heap of tube-mouthed pencil fish. Funny Looking buggers and their mouth is so small that even if they wanted to eat fry I doubt they could. They also provide...

    Best method of matching perameters for w ch on dry tank

    Hey guys. Just hoping to find out some people's methods. I find it very easy to get low ph. I have even had to add small amounts of corals to stop it from crashing down well past 4. My water has basically 0 kh and 0 Gh. I have begun adding Gh into the water to get 1 Gh because the fish need it...

    I.D please

    Oh. Well that's good news in a way. At least it's something that can be easily corrected. I feed mostly blackworms to keep them in breeding condition. But I guess when they are not breeding it just makes them fat. Lol. I spose I should back off the worms and put them to mainly voformo with...
