Actually expect few old school species I am now a days confused with the naming convention provided now a days by the seller so goes with whatever they are saying..
Got them few days back from a good friend in Singapore. They are recovering slowly. The temperature is a bit low in India right now so hopefully with increase in temperature they should be fully settled.
True, I lost few of the panduro due to this aggression, macmasteri are still doing okay for the pair but I guess larger space is what doctor's order and I will get it done :)
Thanks Mac for the calculation, though I have multiple empty tanks where I can shift them if needed, but 90% of my tanks are 18*12*12 inches as those are ideal for shrimp breeding.
But I got your point, I will try to make some larger tanks for them once these get into breeding mood.
Softwater shouldn't be a concern for me, as for my caridina shrimps I use RO water plus remineralizer and also have access to unlimited indian almond leaves :)
Thanks I will avoid the panduro and nijsseni then to be honest.. Monogamous pair fishes is not something I am comfortable with.
Are baenschi (A188), elizabethae monogamous or polygamous?
Thanks Mac for the information. So Max I can go till 30c.
I may be also getting the hongsloi and nijjesni - home breed not wild caughts. Any advice on them?
The likelihood your A. viejita are actually a domestic breed of A. macmasteri is very high, btw. - I heard this from other apisto...
