    Fighting Females?

    I went to my LFS on Friday while on my lunch break and they had just recieved 6 Apisto Borelli's ( all of these fish are about 3/4 of an inch long) I did my best to pick out 1 male and three females to put into my 10 gallon in the office. I left them alone over the weekend with the light on a...

    what is the Best Apistogramma

    I live in the Midwest and currently I am running mostly tap water which tends to run soft and acidic. My two tanks that I am going to use right now are mostly RO water refilled with tap to replace evaporation. Water changes are not a problem I usually do 25-50% once a week. Flake and Pelleted...

    Currently these fish are about 1 inch esch in size, and are in a Eclipse 3 gallon tank with a bunch of live plants. I don't fear the water quality is bad because I have tested it many times. How big are these fish going to get. Do I need to invest in something bigger. This tank is at work and...
