Is this a shingle roof or metal? Don't know anything about the uvc steriliser, but if coming off a shingle roof I would not use it, I use rain water but it is off a metal roof.
If your not ready to deal with fry than let nature take it's course and get everything together you need for next time, you might get a few to survive but I railey do, for me at best it might be 1 or 2. But if you want to save them, get brine shrimp going, the one thing I do [railey will I pull...
I agree with Darrel, I read you post and the first thing that comes to my mind is the tank aged enough, and I don't think so [just me] after only a month, the spices you list are easy to keep if your tank is right, just my 2 cents.
Is your tank a 20 long or tall?
I would set the tank up for a couple of months so it can stabilize [sp] and age before introducing the apisto's, but that's just the way I do it. Any of the three should do fine, I lean more for the the Borellii, but it's my favorite.
I agree, I take all males out at some point and let the female raise the fry and recuperate, and keep them in there own separate tanks till needed again. Good luck.
