    Apisto Abacaxi and dead male Borelli

    The more appropriate question would probably be something along the lines of how often does a female kill the male once she’s on eggs

    ro vs distilled water?

    When I was using it more regularly, I ran my filmtec membrane at 200psi with a booster pump, and recirculated a good portion of the waste water to achieve a 2/1 ratio. I can’t imagine any quality membrane that wouldn’t be able to handle 125psi.

    Breeding Pair, what’s next

    Like stated above, get a grow out tank or three for the fry…borellii fry are stupid slow to grow so it’ll be minimum 6-8 months before they’re large enough to send down the road. Corydoras act a bit aloof, and won’t take the “stay away” cues from momma borellii…they are armored for the most...

    Is a. sp d51 available for import ?

    Proper temperature for d. fiorni ?

    What temps have you been keeping filamentosis in? If memory serves, they required about the same temperature as foirni to get reasonable sex ratios

    Proper temperature for d. fiorni ?

    For reasonably equal ratios of sexes in fry, 79/80* f. A majority of the fry produced during fish room winter (72-75*f) were female, summertime spawns (78-81*f) produced fish that were near equal in sexes. Nearly all of the WC fish I’ve seen imported have been male, which would suggest mid-high...

    Ultrasoft Clearwater Livestock Options for Male Panduro

    Love the tucano tetra from Brazil (Tucanoicthys tucano), fantastic dither, and small enough to not bother fry. I’m not sure I’d describe them as dimorphic, I can’t tell the boys from the girls, but there are alway fry. The blueberry tetra (Hyphessobrycon wadai) is absolutely spectacular when the...

    [Species Identification] Question about wild Apistogrammas from Tefé

    Sp tefe males will display thin reddish zig-zag lines below the lateral band, agassizii “tefe” males will not. Your guess is as good as mine when it comes to the girls
