    Mixing apisto species

    I don't think gouramis are a good idea because by opalines and apistos chased each other so much that I had to move my opaline and blue.

    blanketing tank worked for temp control

    Yeah, i found that after it gets soaked it prevents more evaporation from the tank. Nice side effect.

    keeping it hot 86

    If you don't want to spend another $30+ on another heater, try covering all the openings with towels or some kind of insulation since that's where most of the heat is lost. If you really want to go crazy, you can wrap the whole tank. Reducing the water level should also help keep the...

    Live foods & spawning.

    Agassizi General

    no ammonia and very soft water since I use RO. very low to no nitrates/trites also. I feed them frozen brine shrimp/bloodworms and occasionally live shimp when i have time to raise a batch. They seem to like pellets and sometimes flakes so usually its that twice a day and the shrimp/worms...

    Agassizi General

    I've had a pair of agassizis for a few months now and I haven't seen any of the behavior usually described like the fighting, territorial, or feeding habits. Is this because the pH is too high (its at 6.8) or is it because I am using the wrong foods?
