I forgot to post the video of them here. This is on 5/18, they look much better than this now actually even though I think they look pretty cool here. Sorry the glass was so dirty, this is the quarantine tank. Just one more week till I get to move them
My wait is finally over just got 2 pairs of baenschi from Wetspot. I definitely have 2 males now just to wait for them to be in the quarantine tank for a couple weeks to add them to the other females I have.
Has anyone ever used www.dwarfcichlids.com to buy any fish?
They are showing that they have Baenschi's available and was hoping to hear some reviews if anyone had bought from that site before.
Yes I just thought that was when they were older. These are barely a year old and the one is just much bigger than the other 2 which is what I find odd. I think I just have a large female
I didn't think that was possible and I'm pretty sure it is a female just strange how different it is from the other two and is getting a bigger dorsal fin.
So as it turns out I'm still confused as to the sex of this fish, is it possible that a Baenschi male might show female characteristics if other bigger fish are in the tank? I still have yet to find a baenschi male but the dorsal fin is still getting longer and I can't find any other pictures...
Just to give an update, they have confirmed themselves to all be females. The one that I was hoping was a male is just a bigger female. so I'm still on the search for a male.
Ok I'll try to get a picture, it's just not very often during the times I'm in front of the tank that the one in question is out and about. He likes his seclusion. If it is a female on the right, that female on the left is working awfully hard for nothing :)
thanks for taking the time to...
Just replying again in case Mike didn't look here since that spam post got put on there. Much better video of the fish I'm pretty sure is a male just not sure what species of apisto. Looking closely at it now I think it must just take the baenschi males a lot longer to develop traits than...
Yes I know it's a bad video. I'm trying to get a good picture of it, it just never really comes out front like the other two do. So that's also why i think it's a male of some type because it acts so different compared to the other two that I'm pretty sure are females.
Plus it has quite an...
Yes the front one is definitely a female. How about the back one though? I know that's the tough one to see... you think that's a female as well? So you think two females are just engaging in activity? I'll try to get a better video as well. they just were wanting to stay under the drift wood.
So i was sold these as Apistogramma Baenschi's. I'm not sure what to think they are now.
anyone have an idea what they are?
Please ignore my dogs growling half way through it :)
Well it appears I have all females, I have my local fish store though searching for a male for me and they want one of the females as a trade so that will be a nice thing
Here is one that I'm pretty sure is a female. I'll try to get pictures of the others but they are harder to get good ones of. Not that this one is a great picture
I am just going to have to wait and see. I am pretty sure I would have to take every piece of decoration out of my tank to get those little buggers and they are still awfully small so I don't think it would work quite yet. Thanks you for the suggestion though. I think I have a really good...
