    Sexing Apistos

    I see, so she must’ve eaten them. Shame. But atleast I know they are indeed a pair and should breed again, this gives me a chance to be better prepared atleast! How long do they usually leave it before trying again?

    Sexing Apistos

    Thanks everyone for your help although I think the fun is over for now. I spotted eggs yesterday with the female guarding however now hey have disappeared, is there a chance she has eaten them? I read that they may move them elsewhere but she doesn’t seem to be guarding any cave like areas of...

    I’m going to set up a smaller tank tonight. I’m still not 100% sure if I even have eggs but best to prepared, are there any essentials required for the grow out?

    Thanks, there’s a few neons but maybe I’ll remove them rather than the fry

    Sexing Apistos

    Thanks, it’s been running for around 3 months. I’ll look into some of the live foods I haven’t seen any near me in the UK but I’ll have to look around. Should I remove the eggs and place them somewhere they’ll be alone? Or are they better off staying with the parents to hatch

    Sexing Apistos

    Hello, bit of an update. So the male in question above has become very comfortable and is freely roaming the tank and really gets on with his female friend. The last few days I’ve noticed “flirty” behaviour and today I caught them locked bodies around each other flaring their fins ( I can only...

    Eggs?? Help

    Hi, I’ve come back home to see this in my tank. It appears to be some sort of egg cluster? I was wondering what it could be. I have a pair of golden aggassizi apistos( I know this isn’t them) a few otos, Armano shrimp, and a few neons in there. Any clue what it could be from? thanks

    Sexing Apistos

    Sorry to come back to this, I’ve just thought, the bigger male has tried flexing his fins off a few times? Would this indicate it is female? However what makes me believe it may be a male is that it is very confident around the tank where as the bigger male seems more shy spending more time in...

    Sexing Apistos

    Yes that’s fair enough, it’s a shame they’re so hard to find around me as I’d of loved a more natural pair. Thanks for the info I will do that and update accordingly. Fingers crossed it is female as the reason I came back into the hobby was to breed Apistos!

    Sexing Apistos

    Hi, I’m new to Apistos. I recently bought a pair from my LFS. One is very clearly a male, however I am unsure on this one. Any ideas? Thanks for the help!

    New to Apistos

    Hi everyone! Just got back into the hobby and have got myself my first pair of Apistos. Agassizi golds. My female has been confident eating anything and patrolling the tank, whereas my male has been a lot more cautious and basically hid himself in a little cave for the best part of 5 days. I’ve...
