    Tank Setup question

    you're chilling, just get a female, adding more males will add more complications and you might get to see some nice territorial behavior from them. I've kept a trio of cacatuiodes in a well structured 10 gallon tank with no problems. As soon as I typed this I knew that my death is near from all...

    A. Cacautoides MM pair - one fatality

    I honestly think my life has improved so much since I've started keeping and breeding fish. I didn't want it to seem like what you're suggesting right now which is why I said that it doesn't even have to be from me because I had offered to sell my fish to him and others before. But yeah, I...

    A. Cacautoides MM pair - one fatality

    Also, to clarify, I'm not trying to attack your points, because I agree largely with what you're saying, I'm just saying that for me, my experience has been different and I've given some of the reasons why I think that but I'm still new to it. Though I am good at keeping and breeding apistos...

    A. Cacautoides MM pair - one fatality

    yea, but I've seen that as long as the other fish keep their distance (which they learn), the mother is too busy corralling the fry to chase them around. I've seen hobbyist-led studies that have indicated that for cichlids and dwarf cichlids alik adding the female before can help mitigate the...

    Apistogramma cacatuoides fry growth rate.

    I have a pair of A. Ladislao right now and I've had wild caught agassizii and biatenita before, thy are definitely more aggrssive to othr fish but the aggression between the pair is always female going at the male to breed, nothing else. And I thought it could just be my specific fish but after...

    Apistogramma cacatuoides fry growth rate.

    my fish are also more docile because they've been mixed with wild caught genes several times down the line to strngthen natural markings and behaviors. I breed all my apistos in ten gallons without any aggression issues and without dither fish. The males don't eat the babies as well, if you'd...

    Apistogramma cacatuoides fry growth rate.

    since you're in Hungary, the shipping would be the most expensive part. Because shipping will be a bit of a hassle and because of international shipping, I will cut the price down for you just in case some don't make it. When buying or selling fish internationally, it's standard practice to not...

    A. Cacautoides MM pair - one fatality

    I see where you're coming from. Honestly, breeding apisto females in my experience aren't really that aggressive. At first they can be, but the fish know to keep their space. You should definitely get a female apisto to accompany your male and it doesn't even have to be from me. Your male will...

    Apistogrammas eating/disappearing eggs

    MacZ is a bit harsh sometimes, in past forums, he's been harsh to me and other people. He has very high standards and seems to enjoy the wild version of apistogrammas more, which I never did until I met him. If you know MacZ and this forum, he's always talking about inbreeding of these fish and...
