It needs indeed Apistogramma in it. But I'm also looking for creating a biotope of either the Rio Essequibo or Rio Nanay basin.
This based on the fact the I want to keep the Biotodoma cupido and the Pterophyllum leopoldi. Both are found in both basin. That Also has te mean that i have to remove...
Made some better pictures of the sp. Erdfresser. Also managed to get some more specimens. They came from the same import, but are still small. It also looks like their could be a young pertensis in the group. But it's hard to say at this size.

Hi Mike,
Thank for the info. I trying to get more females for this male. At this moment the female isn't reallt interested in the male. So I hope to get some more females. They where sold as pertensis at the shop. So I hope to get the same species.
Hi erverbody,
Recently I bought a pair of Apistogramma that was labled as pertensis. After putting a picture of the male on Facebook, Frank Ha noticed it isn't a Apistogramma pertensis but a Apistogramma sp. Erdfresser.
My question is, keep this species as a pair or better in a harem...
Update. The tank has a new set-up for the Fish in it. Almost no plants anymore but more wood in it.
Also added oak- and beech leaves and also some catappa leaves.
At this moment no dwarfcichlids in the tank, but they will return in the tank.
Thinking of adding Apistogramma to the tank.

I'll try to make a photo of the Hypoptopoma with only the night lights on.
@Seanor, The name of the fish is standing under the picture. It's the Dicrossus filamentosus male.
Here are some more pictures:

Didn't make it. It's really hard to get them take some food. But I got a second change now and trying to feed them Spirulina algae and Liquifry.
@RHD, thanks
A few days ago, I discovered that the Hypoptopoma sp had eggs. I didn't know how long the eggs had been there, but today I found out that they transformed into larvae. Here a picture of it.
