Disappointed I am if what you say is true.
The idea was to get a self sustaining culture in the tank so that the apisto catch them from time to time. I dont have really bottom fish (no cory or alike) it was supposed to be easy. But if you say they risk to die after eating...
Anyone else has...
It s been a while i keep the temperature at 23,7 and they look fine. But i've never seen the yellow color of the female since.
In my previous tank (26ºC) she got yellow almost every other week. I never saw the fry, guess the eggs did not survive , but at least i saw somthing was happinging in...
Reanimating the topic for i have juste discovered the existence of blackworms.
Do you have to chop live blackworms them before feeding adult trifasciata or can you give them entirely ?
It looks very slim but I read it could be up to 5 cm, sound huge for me...
I saw my Apsito female ONCE trying to catch one of them , but you are right, they are too fast. She got more scared and "run" away in the opoosit direction.
You confirm my feeling: cant rely on guppy in feeding apistos, nor on apistos in controlling guppy pop. I had at least 14 when they were...
Hello
I have a couple of guppies endler in my 240L tank with a couple of A. trifasciata among other fish.
I was hoping Apistos will hunt baby guppies and thus regulate their population, but they seem have NO interest to them .
Wondering if those are my Apisto who are peacefull or they are not...
Personally i find females more beautiful than the male, i mean the bride colours, and i love watching them during the fray periods. And to be honest i expected them to have the same behaviour as my previous Pelvica pulcher. Now i understand it will never happen.
So I've got my answer : no need...
Thanks Mike
Now i understand i took for courtoisie what was actually an aggressive behaviour.
In my old 60L tank, they used to lay eggs (with no further fray though) and the female became aggressive and even attacked the male first. But a couple of days later it was always over(i dont know if...
Hi
I asking this question for it s the reason i am on this forum : what's the lowest T trifasciata can be kept without harming them? Trifasciata keepers, what's the average T in your tanks?
In almost all sites (they probably source from the same) it s said 26-29ºC. But i found one...
Hi
I am new here and new to Apistos. I ahve a couple of trifascaiata in 240L tank. No other cichlids or any territorial species (except for goddy, but they are kind of in different dimensions).
I hear apistos are best kept with 1 male /2 females ratio and was planning to by another female but...
Hi there,
Greetings from the other side of the Atlantic!
I have a couple of Apistogramma trifasciata in a 240L community tank together with a couple of Ottos, 2 stiphodos, 3 danio margaritats and 2 guppy. Not much populated, I agree, but i love it spacy. Later, I am planning to add more...
