i think that i've come to the conclusion that a successful apisto tank has a single species of dwarf cichlid, with a single male. my most successful efforts seem to be a tank constructed with this in mind. my cacatoides tank seems very nice, a 35 gal with 1 male, 4 females, and some tetras and some dwarf plecos. breeding seems to be imminent, with a couple of the females getting yellow and gravid. my worst experience was with my tank full of mixed apistos. aggression got the best of most of my males in that tank, and i feel that more is not better when dealing with apistos.
at the moment i have quite a number of smaller tanks, 5, 10 and a 15 gal, with pairs or trios, with none of the agression problems i've had in the past.
anybody want to comment on this?
