Those both are great answers!
I hope to learn more about the species as time goes on!

Hi,
What does ´cf´ stand for?
My understanding is that any species names that comply with the rules of the ICZN are recognized as valid species. If there is disagreement, then it is submitted for review by the ICZN who makes the final determination. If I counted correctly there are presently 94 scientifically described apisto species with 2 of them considered "incertae sedis". That is less than a third of the known forms that I personally feel are distinct species. It also doesn't include Apistogrammoides pucallpaensis nor Taeniacara candidi.
I thought you lost them all? Only some?Congrats! I have a small group growing out from the initial spawn and now my female is in the cave again.
I could put the fry in the mesh breeder, but with 40 of them I would rather have them patrol the tank and munch on the wood/grime growing everywhere, along with the BBS I'm feeding. Moving the 6 Tucano's took all of 2 minutes last night, and they will be fine in the net for a few weeks. More worried about the male. I need to get started on my 33 Long stand so I can get it up and running.In the process of moving the pair to a larger tank, I stumbled upon some week-2week old fry which I transfered to a small 5 gallon tank to growout.
I would just find a small plastic tote and move all the fry into it, makes the process of growout easier. Then the other fish will be able to swim around.
