Yeah they were 15 a pair, I was just wondering if that is an average price or if it is low.
They spawned soon after I got them and I have 4 that managed to evade my tetras and the biggest is about the size of a neon tetra. If I get them to spawn again I will try to raise the fry separately...
I bought them at a gcca swap meet a few months ago. They were labeled as apisto bitaeniata "purutu" (i just remembered this). The breeding pair are f1 apistos.
Im not sure how old they are because one day I just noticed them swimming around and Im not sure how long they were there before i saw them. They are starting to become shaped like the parents.
I split the spawn up to see what the best fry growing method would be. The half I am worried about are in a 20 long with bare bottom. If they die I wont be that disappointed because there are still plenty in with the parents. The ones in the community tank seem to be growing twice as fast for...
I'm leaving friday and wont be able to take care of my fry. My mom says she will feed them, but she might occasionally forget. How long can fry survive without food? Should I freeze some brine shrimp for them?
Today I noticed that she keeps going from one cave to the other and is now spending more of her time in the other cave than in the first one she chose.
She spends most of her time in the cave except for feeding and occasionally chasing off any cories or tetras that wander too near her cave. She is very yellow. I never noticed her chasing off the male, he even swam into the cave for a few seconds and he also sometimes patrols the outside of...
One more question, do both the male and female need a cave? I was thinking of adding a second cave to my tank because my new female keeps hanging around near the top of the end opposite from the cave, while the male sometimes goes into the cave for a few seconds.
I have 2 apistos in a 20 gallon long. The male is fine, but I noticed that my female has an unusually large stomach and she keeps either swimming at the back of the tank near the surface, or lies on the gravel. Wheras previously she spent most of her time in her cave or midlevel. THe male...
