Well, thank you for all your help. I think it's time to put him to rest tonight. I have been keeping his water as clean as I can and feeding the best food I can get. As he deteriorated further I restarted medications but as of tonight he is only breathing out of one gill. The sore would...
Alright I've been doing more water changes as recommended and I have added some alder cones/leaves to the tank as well. He did have a fungus pop up on the sore yesterday so I did a paraguard bath and that took care of that. As I have been trying to research this in general I think I had...
Alright to explain the meds as far as my rationality. I had been doing some research on what it could be my first suspect was Bacterial Gill Disease. One website said to treat Metroplex and Prazipro together. I didn't fully understand it but I am new to this so I didn't really question it...

My male Apistogramma Baenschi has been acting strange and slowly building some symptoms associated with Fish TB. He has a bulging soar on his side and what looks like a second one just starting on the same side but closer to his face just in front of his gill. His body appears to be darkening...
Alright I am going to separate and trade them back in this evening. The store I go to has a decent selection of Apistos so I guess this is turning into a question about what would be a great pair of Apistos to start off learning to breed with. They have a pair of Apistogramma Pebas that looks...
That’s what has been so strange about this pair. They seem to have gone through a phase of compatibility and then a phase where she was willing and he wasn’t. Now they seem to be in a phase where he is willing and she isn’t. I guess it’s time to try a different pairing. Would you guys suggest a...
Ok I've been on here a few times about my Baenschis and I am still having trouble. After my last post about his injury they had been doing well and getting along but all of the sudden today they have done a 180 and the male is now being aggressive to the "female". She is hiding and when she...
What would you define as a small colony? I can really on have a 20 long dedicated to them. I will separate them tomorrow. After I wrote the first post I thought they might have actually bred but the female has emerged alone today so I am thinking that was a failed attempt. I really like this...
I have had a pair of A. Baenschi together since early August. I have had the male since May. They have made one legitimate attempt at breeding shortly after the female was added. Since then the male doesn't want to participate and ignores the females attempts to get him to come to the cave...
A little update. The bottom glass on my 16 gallon cracked on Wednesday so everyone is now in a 20 gallon long aquarium with a sponge filter that happened to be vacant. I am thinking of getting most if not all other fish out of this aquarium as the 16 was previously a community tank. Do you...
