    Lethargic A. borelli

    Mine too had spawned not long before I noticed something was off with my male. I was actually scanning the tank for free swimming fry when I noticed him behaving different than before. Maybe there's a correlation with this disease and spawning?

    Lethargic A. borelli

    Thank you for your quick reply. Sad to hear. Just my luck to have my fish get a mystery disease. I think decline will come fast now he isn't able to eat.

    Lethargic A. borelli

    Hello, I have a male A. borelli that seems lethargic and rather disorientated, while he was in excellent health before. There's no signs of disease, no worms or spots, other than not being able to eat, being lethargic and bumping into plants and wood whenever he tries to swim. He still gets...

    Rio Juma

    Thank you! Yes, I found the source of your quote aswell. I guess it's unlikely that an Apistogramma would appear in their habitat. Perhaps something else than Hyphessobrycon procyon then.

    Rio Juma

    Thank you guys. I'll look into it.

    Rio Juma

    Thank you! I already tried, but no hits on Juma, sadly.

    Rio Juma

    Thank you. Is Madeira a clear river, because Aripuana and Juma are supposedly so?

    Rio Juma

    Hi everyone, I'm going to pick up Hyphessobrycon procyon in a few weeks. They're a fairly new species of characins from the Rio Juma. Are any of you familiar with an Apistogramma or other dwarf cichlid appearing in the same area? Thanks in advance, Jeffrey

    Copella callolepis (sensu Zarske)

    If you'd add some floating plants from the main tank, they'd probably find some stuff to eat first few days aswell.

    Copella callolepis (sensu Zarske)

    I bred C. arnoldi by putting the leaves on which the eggs were laid in a small tank which had been running for a month or so. The first few weeks the fry survived and later on I could feed them nauplii and infusioria. They took rotifer and such not much later. Strangely, I only raised females...

    Keeping A. borelli and A. trifasciata

    Hi Mike, Thank you for your reply. I want to add A. trifasciata because I think they're great-looking. That and because I lack the number of tanks to keep multiple species. I actually had a pair of L. dorsigera, but they pushed my A. borelli around with their constant breeding. If you suggest...

    Keeping A. borelli and A. trifasciata

    Hey everyone, After a break of keeping Apistogramma, I started again by keeping a pair of one of the easier species; A. borelli. They are living peacefully and doing very fine in my Pantanal habitat. Lately I've been thinking about adding a trio of A. trifasciata, but the thing holding me back...

    Rio Guaporé biotope

    Hi René, If you want more C. hastatus, I've seen them at Top Fish for a reasonable price. I guess you can also order them over there. They also do shipping orders, I believe. You can contact them by phone or Facebook. They're pretty fragile though, so you might want to wait to see how they...

    Apistogramma sp. Erdfresser

    Where did you buy them Gert? Veldhuis?

    New Apisto tank

    If I recall correctly, the A. bitaeniata is also very aggressive. Man, dwarfs are so difficult sometimes. I should buy a bigger tank.
