    A. Cacatuoides and Platies in the 7 gallon tank?

    I have a 12 gallon with a trio and 4 rummy nose tetras so I would think a 7 gallon would be ok with 1 cacatuoide and two platies....

    Courting behavior for cacatuoides?

    Babies and more babies I spotted babies yesterday... The females have taken separate caves on opposite sides of the tank. One has the babies and the other is guarding her cave so I would imagine there are eggs in there, too. The male is just swimming around. I kept the rummy tetras in there...

    Courting behavior for cacatuoides?

    My cacatuoides pairing up... Randall, I have been called lots of names....but I guess you can call me Tanya. The NJmomie is basically because I am a mom living in NJ (very original). Anyway, since the last post, the bigger more colorful male has now dominated both females and they are both...

    Courting behavior for cacatuoides?

    Courting cacatuoides Thanks for your advice Randall. When you say the female will turn yellow, is it her entire body or just parts of her body? My females seem to only have a yellowish tinge. One female is slightly larger than the other and she seems to be more receptive to the males...

    Courting behavior for cacatuoides?

    I am a beginner in apisto rearing so I have many questions. I bought what I thought at the time was a pair of cacatuoides. They never seem to be interested in each other. This weekend, my fish store had some more and I thought I would add two more females so the male would be happy...(we are...

    Eclipse System 12 - Pros/Cons/Experiences

    Eclipse tanks I have two eclipse tanks, one a 12 gallon and the other a 29 gallon. I have a pair of cacatuoides in the 12 gallon with 5 rummy nose and 2 danios. They do great in there. I only have them for about 2 months so no breedings just yet but the male is definitely showing himself so...

    Njisenni and Cacatuoides???

    I currently have two Cacatuoides in a 12 gallon with 3 rummy nose tetras. One is about 2 inches and the other is slightly smaller. I am hoping they are a pair. My LFS recently ordered some Njisenni juveniles and I wondered if I should get some. In a previous post, Neil said that Njisennis...

    Peat???

    I currently have two cacatuoides (hopefully M and F) and would like to add more but as I said in a previous post, I am having a tough time finding them where I live. As such, I would like to keep them as happy as possible and hopefully breed for me. The Ph from my tap is around 7 and I would...

    Any Apistogramma for sale in central NJ

    I am having a very difficult time in getting any species at all near me. I read in one other post to go to the NJ Aquarium Association for a listing of pet shops but all of them are in the northern part of the state (one hour or more away). If there is anyone who lives in central NJ and has...
