    A. Agassizii wasting away

    Are you getting your apistos from the same source? They could be bringing something that your meds don't treat; what do their feces look like?

    VOTE - July 2013 Picture of the Month Contest

    my first apistogrammas

    Like the caves out of the clay pots. I would add a couple more to provide adequate hiding places; maybe two with holes at the top instead of the side? Add some driftwood or oak leaves or more plants to break up the sight lines between the pots. Looks like a good start.

    males outliving females

    Normally, it's the other way around for me...the females take out their aggression on the males. I think maybe it's typical of fish living in too crowded conditions that the 'lesser' fish is not able to escape, like in the wild, or seek adequate refuge.

    Apistogramma eunotus 'orangeschwanz' male

    Unfortunately, I don't have these anymore; but they are around the area. The males are pretty blue sheen with orange tails. This is the first apisto I ever spawned.

    Apistogramma bitaeniata 'Río Tigre' female

    Got these from the guy that collected them in the wild. Very happy with these, again the fry just turn out more and more stunning as the generations go. I think I'm on my third generation now.

    Apistogramma allpahuayo female

    Formerly known as A. schwarzkinn 'black chin', got these from Aquatic Clarity after I lost my trio about four years ago -- never thought I'd have them again, by far my favorite apisto.

    Apistogramma agassizi 'red' female with fry

    Got these from Aquatic Clarity a little over a year ago. These are the wild parents -- the F1s are even more stunning.
