    Apistogramma lineata info?

    Here’s a pretty extreme example of deformed scales in a hybrid.

    Apistogramma lineata info?

    I can’t see enough in the photos, but perhaps you can. Do the rows of scales lose their clean rows/lines and get confused/jumbled/deformed somewhere along the lateral band somewhere between the end of the dorsal fin and the start of the caudal fin?

    Apistogramma lineata info?

    Do you have any higher resolution pictures of the f1 fish? The picture a few posts back kind of makes it look there are some confused rows of scales.

    Looking for Agassizi female (NJ USA)

    Interesting fish, I’d be selective about a female for him…he looks to be somewhere along the lines of cf. agassizii nets/netz or BBCS. Would be interesting to see what Mike or Frank have to say.

    What is proper temperature for a. sp Blutkehl ?

    I’d imagine they’re like many species…86-87 in the dry season highs, 69-73 rainy season monsoon lows, 78-79 avg.

    My pair of Mcmasteri red necks,really pleased with them, just trying to crack the breeding programme.

    Second that ^^^ Until you get a female, they’ll be no breeding

    HTH pool filter sand for agassizii

    Not the prettiest sand, but it’s been in all my Apistogramma tanks for almost a decade. No complaints, no concerns

    A. Elisabethae “red”

    My take is that it’s somewhat near to nature. All the WC Uaupes fish I’ve ever had were “red faced”, never the red face+belly. And that’s how they bred. I’d wager the red belly is population specific…Icana?

    Taeniacara candidi with bent spines

    Are these different from most of the other SA dwarfs? 26 gets both sexes, less than 26 more females, more than 26 more males, seems to be a pretty solid plan for Apistogramma and Dicrossus in my experience.

    Different Dads

    Cacatuoides breeds with cacatuoides, the line bred traits for color are more or less irrelevant

    Acclimation

    Wetspot has water that comes from the tap at about 15us/cm. They just buffer the water up as most folks they’re shipping to don’t have water anywhere near that soft. The variance probably comes from the difference between the warehouse and the store. Id expect the warehouse water (central flow...

    Female and Flaring

    Yes. Females can be very territorial with other females (or their reflection). With that said, the flaring from the females is usually more face on/open mouth/gill flaring in my experience

    Needing ID help

    I kinda resemble this ^^^. There are enough macmasteri adjacent species, I kinda thought cf hoignei-ish

    Tank size

    Kinda depends on the temperament of the parents… I’ve had fish that were totally fine with 3-4 generations of fry with them, and others that would clear the table before every spawn. Trying to catch fry sucks. I’ve always preferred to move the pair to a new tank, and wait till the kids were...

    Clamped Fins and Tail

    I don’t have the slightest idea what the exact problem is, but with ammonia and nitrite reading anything higher than 0 I’d be inclined to change a bunch of water right now, change a bunch of water tomorrow, and probably do the same on Monday before throwing random meds/fixes at the tank.

    Domestic or imported

    Both…there are both really nice fish, and really poor fish that fall in both camps (import and domestic). What fish are you looking for specifically?
