Hello
Recently I gave a new look to my 75 gallon tank. I´m still thinking what I want to do with it. I think i will keep it as planted as it used to be, with some rocks and caves.
I want to add some new apistos and my doubt is which ones and how many of them.
I have a trio of...
Following the advice of Neil identifying pandurinis females I had a look at the rest of my females.
I found that all of them, cacatuoides, agassizii and borelli opal had a black margin in the ventral fin. It´s great to ID the sex so simple. Is it always so? Is every apisto with this black...
I watch them carefully everyday several times.
I think things are getting better. At least the new ones are starting to appear very often in one corner of the tank. The cacatuoides is not so agressive with them. He still runs behind them, but not continuously and they are able to eat by...
Yes, I think it helps.
At least one of them, the small one have a black margin on ventral fines. I suppose is a female beside it doesn´t have a lateral black bloch yet.
I´ll cross my fingers :)

As I said in the other messagge Yesterday I bought 2 trios of apistos (viejitas II and pandurini) I put them in a 75 gallon tank with a trio of agassizii and a couple of cacatuoides.
The older inhabitant developed an agressive behaviour towards the new apistos. They are in a corner of the...
Yesterday I bought a trio of pandurini and a trio of viejita II. I was waiting for the new fishes to come to the shop for a long time. Yesterday I was exciting until I found some problems.
First at all I´m not very happy with the election of pandurini individuals. I was looking at the tank...
I´m sick and tired of seing how my borellis eat the eggs on the second day. Maybe is because they think is not worth it to spend energy trying to protect them until they reach an adult size. I don´t know, I don´t mine :)
This is my turn :) I would have preffer to let them the job...

Hi everybody
I found the information I was looking for in one article of the krib.
That worried me, because I have some single agasizzi morphos with no couple.

hi everybody
Does anyone know where can I find the features of every complex and subcomplex of the apistogramma gender?
I´ve been reading a bit, how to diferenciate between cacatuoides subcomplex and nijsseni sub complex for example, but I would like to find more.
I´m reading the...
Here it go a doubt I always had
I guess the answer is yes but anyway I want to be sure about that.
It is possible to breed a doble red agasizzi male with a red or even tefe agasizzi female. I mean, are differents types of morphos compatible?
Regards
Well, you dont know how happy you make me. If you read at the krib

You`ll see a diferent photo too. In fact a very different look. I saw both of them the...
Hi everybody
I´m glad to find this forum. I only have 2 obsesions, plants and apistogrammas :). I have no problems with plants but we could say that I´m a novice with apistos.
I have the chance to get some A. atahualpa "sunset", in Spain this is not easy to find. I would say that it...
