    Apistogramma trifasciata fry and growth rate?

    Well after lucking into a pair of trifasciata and having them in my 4' community tank I was suprised tonight to find fry. I didnt even suspect eggs (not seeing the mother with any when I fed the tank last night I figure they have been free swimming up to a day). So my main question is growth...

    Quick question on cacatuoide

    Just a quick question on sexing cacatuoide. One of my females has started to form a lyrette tail which I've never seen on a female, keeping other normal colours (ie light yellow grey) no colouring on fins. I was wondering the chance of it being a sleeper male as I've never seen a female with a...

    Just after any tips on picking the difference beween these two fish. I picked up a trio of nijesseni today, and noted how close they look (nijesseni in general) to panduro, so I was wondering (being as paranoid as I am) how to tell the difference? Andrew
