Hi,
I've been feeding my baby apistos baby brine shrimp, and crushed flakes. They seem to like both.
But, I was wondering how goood the boiled egg yolk really is. Can someone give me some good detailed instructions on how to do it? everything i have read is rather vague.
Thanks a...
Sorry about what happened..I use ebojager and acura heaters. I have found the ebojagers to be a bit more consistant, and more sturdy.
MH, eh? heh I am considering that for a future reef tank...PC lighting is good enough for my FW tanks :wink:
The plants and wood really give me some room for error, so if i accidentaly forget a feeding, the fry have plenty to nibble on.
right now my project is a 29g reef tank, then a 50g tanganyika tank. after that or maybe somewhere inbetween i will "need" to set up more apistogramma tanks :lol:
I think I am getting to be an apistogramma geek now, I have 2 tanks full of eunotus fry, and the parents are in my bolivian ram tank, taking over the rams' caves. :lol: Wow, breeding takes up time and tanks!
here are my two 10g tanks i am using for breeding, there are babies around...
I had to delay my live rock ordering for my salt water tank by a month today, as i had to order all new equipment for a new 10 gallon tank.
My other eunotus female and the male are about to have a spawn, so i have to set up another 10 gallon tank. :twisted:
apistogramma sp. "Blaukopf_Gelbflossen" anyone heard of this fish?
I think that is a female, the old female had the exact same coloring before suddenly laying eggs.
Augh! Now i think caetei! papagei! rio acre! What ARE they?? They don't seem to fit into any group i have seen, maybe these new picture will help you guys 8O.
BTW, whatever they are.....anyone interested in trading in the near future? I have 50+ freeswimming fry, and am gonna sell a lot...
I got new pictures again, these are the best ones ever. They are clear, bright, and I got the female guarding the fry!!! :D
So do any of you want to make a final call one what fish these are?

My guess now: Apistogramma Eunotus...
can't get to the LFS for another week to get some eggs. lucky i picked up the frozen. My fry are free swimming now (sort of). They are on the substrate, and get up and swim when momma apistogramma moves. they look like they nibble on her sometimes. she is such a good mom! :)
actually i bought some frozen baby brine shrimp today, live is out of the question. I think this will work.
How long does it take for the fry to become free swimming?
mama is all alone now, i got the others out. I was a bit wrong about her moving the eggs. She wasn't moving EGGS. I looked closer, and they were wigglers! She picks them up a lot with her mouth and puts them back with the rest of the group. How do I do this fry food thing with boiled egg...
