    looking for Ivanacara adoketa WTB

    We don't have them from lack of trying. We have two offspring...two. That is after a year of keeping the parents. Of course then we lost the female and have since repaired the male with another...keeping our fingers crossed. They are difficult to put in mildly. I'm hoping to raise up the...

    looking for Ivanacara adoketa WTB

    Unfortunately I don't know of anyone in the states that has any at this time. The only two that I know of that have been successful in breeding them are Dave and Eric Bodrock. I'm pretty sure Eric doesn't have any either. I would check with Eric and see if he knows where you might be able to...

    need an ID please

    Yep....I ship fish from PA to Alaska and Hawaii and have no problems with the apistos making it. I've gotten fish from Dave as well and they were packed really well. I've shipped fish far more delicate than the apistos so I wouldn't not at all be concerned with getting those from Dave.

    I.Adoketa

    Actually more than likely in my case it's a classic case of ignorance is bliss. Sometimes I just don't know any better and I get lucky...lol.:wink: Both pairs are spawning fairly regularly and now it's just a matter of getting those eggs before they do. I would prefer they do the parenting...

    Same here. I've not had any of the aggression that I was expecting to see. I grew mine out in a 50 gallon tank and even put in a few pairs of cacs. They never bothered the cacs but did eat the fry from them. I now have two pairs in 20Hs with lots of Cover. Both pairs are spawning and we...

    I can't help with the hongsloi or the Crenicichla compressiceps but if you locate the latter will you let me know. I've been looking for those off and on myself. ...Oh...and welcome to the board!

    Thanks guys! Yes they were in that lot of aggies. Thanks for the proper name for the aggies. I'll have to pass that onto Larry.

    These were mixed with the aggies..

    I found these in the shipment of aggies I got. There were only these three. I have tried to figure out which one but I'm not sure. Before I tell someone yes that is what they are I thought it a good idea to find out for sure. Thanks in advance for any help here.

    Shipped as veijita but don't think so.

    Thanks Mike. Ordering wild apistos will never be boring that is for sure. You never know what your going to get. And there are always a few oddballs mixed in.

    Shipped as veijita but don't think so.

    I got these in a few weeks back as veijita but I'm pretty sure they are not. What do the pros say??? They are still pretty young. These are the pictures I took when they arrived. As you can see some very yellow gals in the lot.

    Electric blue rams

    Here is a a picture of the ones I just got in. I haven't looked really close but I think there are males and females in there. They are not going to be easy for me (bad eyesight anyway) till I put my glasses on and really look at them. I will definately keep a few pairs for myself. They are...

    Wild Aggies?

    All I have on their location is Brazil...pretty vague. They are pretty fish...some of the best of the wilds I've gotten in. Unlike my domestic aggies these are very outgoing and will eat anything....go figure.

    Wild Aggies?

    Ok..I got these in as wild aggies but was recently told they are gephyra so I figured I should ask the pros to make sure I'm iding them correctly. They are pretty fish for sure.

    Apistogramma elizabethae question

    Yes Pug...they are difficult to spawn. As least this has been my experience. I have a pair that I'm hoping now that the female has recovered from droopsy will finalllyyy do something. The only place I know where they are being bred commercially is in Europe.

    Mixed fry in grow-out?

    I haven't broken it down yet but I'm pretty sure that is less than what we were being quoted. I am still trying to wrap my mind around a bun of foam which is 12" x 48" x 118"!

    Mixed fry in grow-out?

    Yes I have seen the poret. This is stiff like that...not a soft foam like the foam filters. We only have it made up as corner type filters right now and it's doing pretty good. We are going to get more sometime in the near future and set it up in some of our 20 gal grow out tanks.

    Mixed fry in grow-out?

    I keep mine pretty crowded and have really not had an issue with aggression. The cacs will even spawn under those crowded conditions. We have been doing a ton of water changes and have been looking into the foam as well. We are in the process of working with a company to get the foam made...
