    Belowwater new list at Mainly Cichlids

    I thought I'd post this for those like me who aren't able to do a big order directly from Oliver, but Mainly Cichlids just got Oliver's new list in. I think he's putting in the order at the end of the week. Lots of apistos and other dwarf cichlids are on the list! I'm thinking of getting a...

    apisto trifasciata fry wierd behavior

    My pair of trifasciatas ('Red') spawned for the first time in early June. Between a power outage, high temperatures and first-time spawn in a community tank, I was very happy thinking that one of the fry had survived. Imagine my surprise seeing two of the fry swimming together last night! The...

    A. trifasciata fry!

    Hooray! My A. trifasciatas I got several weeks ago have successfully bred! Tonight I noticed one of my females was extra snippy and when I looked closer, she was guarding a bunch of free-swimmers! From their behaviour of the last few days, I believe this was their first spawn. I think they...

    Apisto trifasciata?

    A couple months ago, I got a pair of Apisto's that were labeled as Apisto. borelli. However, as they have grown and I've done some research, I think no way these guys are borelli. I think that the male is trifasciata but I have no idea about the female since I'm having difficulty finding more...

    Sneaky Male or Normal Breeding Behavior?

    I have four Apisto. cacatoides in my 25 gallon long heavily planted tank and since I'm new at Apisto breeding, I'm not sure what I'm seeing is normal or what. I have three supposed triple red females which I got from a very reliable source and a month or two ago I added a wild-caught male. The...

    Good S.A. Dwarf Cichlid books?

    Can anyone recommend some good books on SA Dwarf Cichlids? My experience has only been with Apistos so far but I'm open to other South American dwarf types too. I have "Dwarf Cichlids: A Handbook for Their Identification, Care, and Breeding" by Horst Linke and Wolfgang Staeck, but I've heard...

    Amano shrimp good idea for Apisto Tank?

    I have three Amano shrimp (not ghost shrimp) in my planted 25 gal long tank with a trio of Apisto cacatuoides that I would like to get to breed. Is this a bad idea? I'm concerned the shrimp will harass the parents trying to get at the eggs.

    Agassizii okay for Eclipse12?

    I have a planted, several-year-old Eclipse12 that will shortly be empty. I was thinking it would be nice to have a pair of Apisto's in there with perhaps three or four pencil fish. My tap is hard/high pH but I have an dinky R/O unit for supplementing the tap water to bring it down a bit. Is...
