Jowens,
I keep my rising generation, (3-6 month old), in 200l tank, together with some very old Apisto. In this 200l tank there are appr. 100 apisto different types, 4 very old viejita and 4 old caca.
There is no aggression and I change the water 40% once a week. No problems.
The same...
Hi,
looking always for rare and colourful Apistogramma I got an offer from one dealer here in Germany. Unfortunately I couln´t find pictures in the internet. I don´t know them - perhaps some of you have an idea where I can find pictures or can say me some words (colourful) to the...
Hi,
I have some tanks for breeding and a big tank for the babies. Whenever a couple get babies I leave them from their parents after 3-4 weeks. I do that with a tube and give the babies enough time for lets say 3-4 hours to get accustomed to the water in the baby tank (which is nearly the...
Hi,
it depends on the price. When I have to pay f.e. for 1 female Papagei 25 Euro here in Germany, its very expensive and I really have to think about it. So in most cases I buy only 1 pair, sometimes 2.
Always looking for rare apisto, I have to buy the apisto from one family when I...
Neil,

Hi Neil,

Muchas gracias and hasta luego (hablo espaniol pero no portuguese).

Hola,
most of the Apistogramma are polygam. I would like to give my male "Papagei" 3 ladies. But I don´t know, if they are polygam or only monogam.
Avoiding stress I think it´s better to raise the question here as to try it.
Ciao
Dirk
unfortunately I know nobody who can help me.
Hi,
does anybody from you have experiences or in other words has done a tour to see Apistogrammas in their natural environment?
Beginning next year I would start, lets say for 2 weeks, a journey to Brasil to watch Apistogramma. My first...
Hi BC,
okay I try to answer your question and hope I understand you right from here in Germany.
R/O is I believe what we called in Germany the unit for "osmose-water". I use this also, because we have as you very hard water with PH 7,5.
First of all I bought 4 gallons with each of them...
Great!
One of my 4 couple did it. Now I haven´t wait any longer. With some luck I can see the jung fishes in some days.
Today I´m a lucky guy. :D :D :D
Ciao
