[Walshy]

Hey guys. Got some females up for grabs. All healthy and about 3 cm. pm or post here.

 

[Walshy]

Just bin sitting here getting lost in my tanks lol. Females are closer to 4.5cm. Got some clear males from the spawn behind theirs that are ready to go too. The spawn behind the origional is about 3 cm. no males left from origional spawn. Hope that made sense all healthy and eating sera viformo.

[Walshy]

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 currently have a young male in there that is about 3-3.5 cm. (stunning little bugger and full of colour). I keep selling trios so the females are much smaller at about 2-2.5 cm. Here is a pic of some previous fry http://www.aquariumlife.com.au/showthread.php/46890-FS-apistogramma-beanschi?highlight=Beanschi The pictures never do them justice because i am no good at taking photos so they are the best i could do. that pair had just bred in my tank beleive it or not so they had bin separated and I rushed to sell them although they were quite small I couldn't have them breeding in my grow out tank. I cull any deformities so u will only get healthy young apistos. I also have mendezi growing out at the moment as well as bitaeniata marine aff. Bit they will be a little longer. Thanks

hi all, I'm new to this forum.

I'm in search of some Apistos for my second tank...

Does anyone have any pairs for sale? I'm from Clayton.

Cheers,

Hafidz

 

[Walshy]

Hey mate. I still have a few pairs of beanschi growing out. They are getting on the smaller size at about 2.5 to 3cm because ive sold a few lately but clearly sex able. I have mendezi at the same size but they aren't yet sex able and also have bitaeniata Marine aff growing out but they appear to be real slow growers and need some more months untill they will be sex able. I'm just near oakleigh in murrumbeena so it's not far from Clayton.

Hey Walshy,

This sounds exciting! How much does a pair (Beanschi) go for? I can drop by later in the week if you're free.

Are they ok to be in community tank or should be species only tank? Also how much care do they need? My knowledge base is somewhat limited to discus and rams but have been reading up a lot on apistogrammas since earlier this year. Hence, all advice are greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Hafidz

Hello Walshy,

Sorry if i intrude, but i was reading your post and saw you had some bitaeniata aff marine and Mendezi, i would be interested but i live in Canberra, do you think you can post them ? I currently breed Mc masteri, steel blue and inka baenschi f1, all growing up nicely if a swap interest you.
As you know it is rather difficult to source apistos in Australia and even more in Canberra.

[Walshy]

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 help you out with some apistos because i know the pain of looking, looking, looking and getting nowhere but i honestly dont think its possible..

 

[killiapistofan]

Hello walshy,

Thanks for the offer i don't think there's an issue with postage, they just have to be via australia air express, the thing it is not cheap and you have to make sure you are there when they arrive. Also Apistos are not the best travellers so there is always a risk.
