Obviously, they are nice!:biggrin:
Are they tank-bred or wildcaught?
If you say 'German Apisto' it's almost always mean that they are t-b, but they don't look so differently from 'normal' A. guttata.
Only male fish has a bit less number of small black or red spots.
I gave my F1 trio to the collector, who lost his fish. The next day my wild female died.
Hi blueblue. Yes they look good, thank you for sharing.

I'd like to read your opinion, blueblue.

Thanks Mike for the supplementA guttata is one of my favorite fish to keep. I got mine years ago from a friend who collected them from the Rio Morichal Largo. He also sent me some Nanacara quadrispinna. The guttata have a wonderful outgoing personality - and not especially hard to breed. Wild fish are hard to get because they do not occur in areas typically collected commercially.
Yes, please do. Then visit Denver & bring some fry for me. I gave my F1 trio to the collector, who lost his fish. The next day my wild female died.
I have the same problem. ;-)
I gave my fry away and then my female died. Fortunately he still have them, so I hope to get back a female soon. The problem is, that most of the fry are male and just very few female.
And they are really nice fishes.
regards,
Rolo
Hi Rolo, i know that some guttata could have very well-extended dorsal membranes... do you have some information and photos to show us how
far the dorsal fin can extend?? Some people say they could grow to a level
similar to A. sp. "Breitbinden"
