Hello everyone,
I have a problem in my larger tank, the 240-liter aquarium. Ever since I set it up, my plants have been dying off, especially the floating plants. Limnobium laevigatum and hygroryza aristata in particular.
Today I noticed that I can clearly see the leaf veins on the floating H...
Hi everyone,
I’m planning to get a few Echinodorus plants this summer and try growing them on my balcony—emerse, of course.
Since my balcony faces south and can get quite windy at times, I was thinking of Argentinensis or Palifolius.
Does anyone have experience with growing Echinodorus...
Hi all,
I have a question about *Apistogramma bitaeniata* locality forms.
The breeder told me that my male is a “Peru Blue”, but he does not know the exact collection locality. Because of that, I am unsure how to judge this fish in terms of breeding.
What I mainly want to understand is this...
Hi fellow aquarists,
I hope you are doing well.
I just had an idea and wanted to ask whether you think it would be safe. I have a Musa basjoo plant in my bedroom. It is an offspring of another offspring from a plant I originally bought about four years ago. Sometimes the older leaves dry out...
Hello everyone,

In a few weeks, I may be...

I just got a pair of A. bitaeniata. I am actually not sure if the female really is a female so I ask you for help. I unfortunately only have my mobiles camera.
Here are three pics of the fish in question. She is approximately 3 to 4 cm.
Hi everybody. I hope you all are doing well.
I just saw the video by Chris Lukhaup where he filmed a color variant of A. agassizi. I wonder if anyone knows which cf. it is? Just in case I want to look for it in the stores. :)
Here is the link to the video on Chris' Youtube Channel:
Hello everyone,
I am currently planning a soft water aquarium for an Apistogramma and some tetras/pencil fish. The aquarium will have a capacity of around 180 liters and a base area of 100 cm x 40 cm.
As I would like to achieve a black water look, I am wondering whether my plan is feasible. I...
Hello Apistogramma Forum,
I’m new to the community here, although I was a silent reader a few years ago.
Due to various life circumstances, I had to put my aquarium hobby on hold for several years. Now I’m finally returning and have set up a 180-liter aquarium (100 × 40 × 50 cm), in which I...
