    Beautiful fish you have. The pic of the tank does not show much though.

    Project Papagei is done. I have lost the female too.

    My BW/CW 50 gallon tank

    Thanks. All I wanted was to have a piece of Amazonia in my living room and it seems I made it. Not so lucky with fish, though. The setup is 48"x16"x16" tank with OptiWhite front. Lighting: 48" 16W LED tube and 24" 24W fluorescent tube. Filtration: Eheim 2224. Substrate: sand + aqua...

    Which Apistogramma is this?

    I've lost the male. :( And see no fry anymore in the tank. Project "Papagei" got busted...

    A couple of new acquisitions from the Amazon 2011

    Just setup a drarf cichlid tank

    Leave just one 2217 and trim it down. I am using Eheim 2224 (which has 40% less throughput than 2217) in a similar tank and it is absolutely sufficient. There is some current that ruby tetras and simulans enjoy while apistos are just fine.

    75 Gal A. eunotus "orangeschwanz" Setup

    Judging by the comments so far I may be going upstream but to me top of the tank looks too empty. I would add taller and heavier looking roots, some pistia to float on the surface and probably some dither fish such as Carnegiella. But that would be me. Anyway, the bottom looks great and made...

    Can some one ID this Apistogramma

    Thanks again, Mike. Seems that I want to get the right male a little bit too much. Need to chill. ;-)

    Can some one ID this Apistogramma

    Mike, here are other pictures of this female which you previously identified as probably A. sp. Masken. Can you take another look?

    Can some one ID this Apistogramma

    As some of you may remember, I got this female, probably A. sp. "Masken": I started to wonder if this is not A. cinilabra? My LFS where I got this fish has just filled up the stock (from the same importer as previously) and I can see females looking exactly like mine labeled as cinilabra...

    Which Apistogramma is this?

    I was away for a couple of days. Returned this morning, looked in the tank and... the female guards a bunch of fry. :-D
