    Female A.Baenchi seeks Male for fun evenings at home.

    Wild caught Apisto Baenchi in good health is looking for a parter to share some intimate encounters and raise a family. If you are a male A. Baenchi, around 1.5 inches, in good health, located in or around the Montreal area and looking to settle down, this could be the start of a beautiful...

    Aquarium Plan w/ Hard 8.0 PH water

    I collect rain water (or snow in winter) and top up with that…not a very scientific approach and my panduro haven’t bred yet but I’ve had breeding success in the past with nissejni and Cacatoides. I believe rain water doesn’t collect the minerals that make water hard as it passes through the...

    The ongoing Male/ female question.

    The males sometimes pretend to be females. I heard the same happens in Bangkok sometimes!

    The ongoing Male/ female question.

    well, it seems the fish store was right...she turned more yellow et voila!...eggs.

    The ongoing Male/ female question.

    Thanks for your response. I suspect the breeders keep the females to spawn more fish. I’ll put in a coconut and wait it out!

    The ongoing Male/ female question.

    The fish store swore up and down that this was a male and a female. The fins say it's a real pair but the colouring suggests it maybe a subordinate male. They're both about 1.5 inches. I used to get cacatoides years ago and the female had no colour butI'm told that with the manipulation that the...

    Panduro ID

    This fish was sold as a female but looks like a male from what I've been able to see online.. I very would much appreciate a definitive answer as I'm (obviously) no expert and would like to add a 'partner' to his/her/ life. Sorry about the white marks on the image...they are from the glass...

    Flashing Viejita

    The male started to flash too so I removed snails and put salt in the water. Male and 2 pics of the female. The white dots seem to be colouration not ice to me. Thanks

    Flashing Viejita

    I have a tank with about 20 neon Teras, and a pair of (wild caught) A.Viejita. My female Viejita is flashing on gravel and rock but the male isn't, nor are the tetras. He's been giving her a bad time -- chasing etc, so I was wondering if the flashing was stress related or flukes. I don't see...

    A.Viejieta (?) ID question

    Many thanks for this. I can’t find any difference between the two fish do I’ll wait and see. They are VERY shy, I guess wild caught fish aren’t used to humans staring at them There’s a store in Montreal that ONLY has wild caught fish. I’d post their name but. It sure if it’s appropriate on the...

    A.Viejieta (?) ID question

    I acquired these two fish and was told they are wild caught, male and female A.viejieta. However they seem to be exactly the same sex to my untrained eye. I assumed they were both females but one is about 5 cms and the other is about 4....which I thought was kind of large for females. If anyone...
