I use my RODI water for South American and West African fish. I use my well water with a TDS of 450 ppm for a lake Tanganyikan tank. The n. multifasciatus are really a treat. I also keep j. transcriptus Gombe and insular dwarf a. compressiceps. It’s a terrific hard water tank. You should head in...
I invested in a RODI system so I could raise various species of Apistogramma. When I used my tap water with a GH around 225 ppm my cockatoo didn’t live more than one year.
I’m on my 3rd generation of orange flash cockatoo. They are a lot of fun. I suggest some dither fish. I have also observed that the offspring make for better parents when left with their mother for about 6 weeks. I would remove the father instead of the fry.
Is there a book about Apistogramma that has good color photos of many of the species? I’m looking for something like the William T Innes classic, Exotic Aquarium Fishes but focused on Apistogramma.
my a. cacatuoides pair our housed in a 20 gallon long with 10 n. beckfordi. I have 35 juvenile from the last spawn. I did not witness predation by the beckfordi in this hatch or the previous hatch.
I have had success breeding this pair before. I transfer the male to another tank about one week after I observe fry. I end up with about 20 juveniles to rehome.
I have a pair of triple red a. cacatuoides with ten n. beckfordi in a 20 gallon long. Everyone is doing well. The pair have spawned in a coconut cave recently.
