    Abacaxis

    Just beautiful! They've been on my "want list" since I saw the first picture of them.

    Tucurui spawned!

    The second brood disappeared and it looks like the female is sitting on another batch of eggs now. The first group has gotten smaller, but growing well and is still under the protection of the Mom. There are two young Dicrossus maculatus in the tank that I couldn't catch without removing...

    Tucurui spawned!

    I'd never kept these before, so when I saw them on an availability list, I sprung for a few. They have a reputation for being aggressive towards each other, so they're in a tank with lots of cover and hiding places. I found this when I got home from work today and when I looked further, I saw...

    First Fry Food

    Micro worms are small enough, but I've never had any luck getting Apisto fry to eat them. They go crazy over freshly hatched brine shrimp and will eat until their bellies are bulging and bright orange.

    D. foirni on aquabid

    I've been looking for this species for years and finally there's a six pack of juveniles on Aquabid. Problem is; they're already up to $300 on the first day and if they're anything like D. maculatus, chances are you'll get 6 males. I'm going to lock my wallet up in the safe.

    Dicrossus sexual developement

    Just found the thread- late to the party as usual! I messaged the wrong temps to Gerald- sorry, Gerald; I should have said high seventies to low eighties. I've heard so many reports about these fish being "bad parents" and eating the eggs before they hatch, but I don't really think that's the...

    Wild caught Apisto ID needed please

    Sorry for the bad picture, but these guys are very, very shy. We collected them in the Madre de Dios region of Peru and guides said they were A. luelingi but they don't look like it to me. Possibly A. ortegai? Thanks Don

    33 gallon long - Dicrossus filamentosus and friends

    33XL has always been one of my favorite tanks for SA dwarfs, and your set up shows it off extremely well. Very nice!

    A. rubrolineata?

    We collected these in the Madre de Dios region of Peru and they were identified as Apistogramma rubrolineata by the folks more familiar with the fish of the area. They've started to spawn and before I distribute any to other hobbyists I'd like to know for sure what they are. Thanks Don
