    Pair Bonding Species

    Gotcha. I have always been paranoid about my ph crashing or just being unstable in general but the more i read on the forum it sounds like I might be over thinking it? I haven't had much of an issue yet an admittedly have really dialed back how much I test. But I have been really considering...

    Pair Bonding Species

    Hey guys, I have kept a few species of apistogramma now and have experienced what I have seen on the forum described as more polygamous type behavior (i.e. the male is somewhat aggressive towards a female if she is not ready to spawn). But I have seen it mentioned that there are more monogamous...
