apisto

Hi everyone! I'm returning to the hobby after about a 15 year hiatus and I can't wait to learn more from this community. I'm located in northern VA so I'm looking forward to attending some events, too. I am currently working on a 5 gallon planted shrimp tank and I'll probably add some nano...

So I got a few triple red apistos for my 40 breeder tank and just noticed that I have fry! In the tank I also have 4 angel fish, 2 cory cats, 4 rummynose tetras, 5 black skirt tetras and some mystery snails. I read that I should be feeding them bbs to start out with and move them to another...

got a juvie female free pick up only.fairfax city.

Nice pair from Apistodave in a 10g. Male had alot more orange but darkend up when I added all the leaves. They seem to like it and get along well. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sGnyRrYJQEc&list=UUF12IUaBYvTWQx2OUVd5woA

got fry from this guys selling trios , do my best to get male and females.

20 long complete with filter, light, glass top and two powerheads (not using) I just got from Craigslist for $30 Three small female Borelli blue that are yellowing up. I have two males coming tomorrow to add. I guess I will see how they get along. Plenty of caves but I may need to add more...

Rescaped the 46g Bow with cedar wood and thick with plastic plants. I like the look and it really works well to seperate territories. The Angels and Tetras feel at home. Apistos come to the front quite often. Mostly all males and they get along well. A. Trifaciata male and female...

Male is about 1.75 and two females are about 1". Females are still young but lots of flirting. ....Bill

Hey all, I'm a relative newcomer to Apitsogrammas - have only kept them once or twice and never really focused on them. I was fortunate enough to bring back several species from Peru (Pebas blues, caucs, agassizi and eunotus) and they are done quarantining. I have been keeping them in partial...

I finally found a female from a different store. The two stores order through different people. Coincidentally I found a complete 20 gallon setup on Craigslist for 40 bucks yesterday so I jumped on it. I set it up last night and seperated my kribensis and male cacatuoides. Bought the female...

So after watching Jeff's presentation last Saturday i now have to get a dwarf SA cichlid. After some research i think i am going to go with Apisto. agassizii. for now they will be in a 20 gallon high tank for quaranteen, but will probably upgrade to a 29g or so. would like to add some small...

I've been thinking of venturing out into some New World cichlids and want to know some more about some of the dwarf CA/SA's. Right now my set-up is limited to a 10 gallon which is quite limited in stocking. The old stocking on the tank was a betta community. My super-delta tail betta...

I am working on redoing my nano tank -- it is roughly a 6 gallon tank with an 11x11 footprint. I have been trying to think what to put in it, and yesterday Sam suggested apisto borellii. I have been doing some reading trying to learn about them and whether that would work well. One...

I get al ot of questions from you fervent apisto keepers about appropriate tank mates. This one is for you! Pyrrhulina spilota- Species spotlight Posted by msjinkzd on January 31, 2013 | 0 comments This fish is undoubtedly uncommon, despite its...

My pretty new apisto, courtesy of Sam. Wild caught from Peru. Co-existing nicely with my rainbow pair caring for fry in one corner of the tank. This boy is pretty outgoing although his little wife is more reclusive. Thought I'd share . . .

Here are a few pics from some of Princes offspring

Hello, I have a male apisto that I bought a few months ago from Michael Barber. He is wild caught from Peru, but have no idea which type it might be. Would like to find a female and breed them. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Since the second C in CCA stands for cichlid, I'd better get on board. I have a 20 gallon moderately planted tank with 6 brochis splendens and 6 non-descript danios. I'd like to add some color. So, what's a good starter apisto? Should I get a pair or a single male to start? Do I need to...

not sure how this works but i have these three currently in their own frry tank =) today the pigmy cories were free sweemers and had little to yolk thing left. yesterday nite the apistogramma cacatuoides "orange splash" were abducted from their parents and i put them in a tank of their...
