Can/will a sneaker male assume female brood coloration? I have a female (?) who colors up nicely, enters a cave, chasing tetras away, then leaves cave to enter another cave on other side of tank, then returns to first cave. She doesn't spend much time at all in second cave.
This is the third...
Hello all. First time raising apisto fry (Apistogramma sp. pebas 'morado' and A. borelli 'blue'). Just wondering if someone more experienced can answer a question? At about 7-8 weeks, the borelli especially are showing adult behaviors (chasing, tail-wagging, etc). The fish are about 1/2 -...
Hi,
Here is the situation. Last Friday I received a young pair of Apistogramma hongsloi.(Czech tank-bred) The male is about 1", the female maybe 3/4". He is already colored up nicely and was harassing her quite a bit in 20L. She wasn't eating, was hiding all the time. Monday he seemed...
I have a male A. agassizi with a pair of females in a 30L tank. There was another female, with whom the male had spawned with twice, but both times, he overpowered her eventually and ate the eggs. She was set up in a 10G with a nicer (attitude and looks) male, she is getting ripe with eggs...

Hi all,
New to the forums and to apistos. Have recently acquired 4 wild caught Apistogramma Eunotus. They are in a 20L with 4 Flameback bleeding heart tetras (originally 6, lost 2 to water change not knowing water company had heavily increased chloramine use). All fish are doing well...
Hi all! New here, and as thread title says, coming back after long time away. I used to keep some Central Americans, some dwarfs, community tanks, etc. Now, am interested strictly in dwarf cichlids because of tank/space restraints...lol. I have kept a couple west africans in the past, but...
