    Agressive male apisto

    Hey, i have had a male cacatoo ciclid for about 6 months now and recently added a female. Its in a 20 gallon long that is heavily planted. The male is non stop harassing the female but there is no damage done, yet, after a week. She is very young, just at selling size and he is about a year old...

    Apistogramma & Blue Acara

    Hello, I'm currently planning the stock for my 55gal (Fluval Roma 200L) tank and am highly interested in apistogramma and blue acara. I know I'm probably being hopeful, but is there any way a male or pair of apistogramma (vejita gold or cacatuoides) can live with a blue acara? I have a cave...

    Female cacatuoides not eating

    Hello! This is my first post on any type of fishkeeping forum, so please forgive me if I got something wrong/didn't give enough info. I picked up a pair of subadult apistogramma cacatuoides two weeks ago (male was about 1.5 inches, female was about 1 inch). They both looked very healthy when I...

    Apistogramma in 20 Gallon Community Tank

    Hi all! I am thinking about setting up a 20 gallon planted tank, and want to stock it with 6 rummynose tetras, 6 kuhli loaches, some amano shrimp, and a single male apistogramma cacatuoides. I'm fairly new to the hobby so don't want to get in to breeding, so I just wanted to make sure the...

    Cacatuoides Fry Instructions

    Hello! I have a pair of beautiful Cactuoides apistos that just hatched their second batch of fry. Last time their fry became free swimming, I had the two fish in a 29 gallon with dither pencil fish. I read on forums that the fry would be able to find food for themselves and that the mother...

    Hello from Spokane

    I just got back into fish keeping since 2015 and I couldn't be happier. Jumped right back into my old ways with a 20 gallon long (to start) planted with a (hopeful) pair of Apistogramma Cacatuoides 'Super Red' and a school of glow light tetras. I hope I can learn more from this forum and return...

    Cacatuoides and Bolivian Rams

    Hi all Forgive me if this has already been asked, but has anyone got any experience of keeping the two together? I have a pair of cacatuoides in a 55g and am wondering whether this would work? The tank is fairly heavily planted and lots of driftwood in there too. So sight lines would be ok. And...

    Accidents Happen - The Cacatuoides Spawn

    The pair of young Cacs I'd set up a few weeks ago have decided to bring out some fry to show me. Though a few months ahead of my schedule, exciting nonetheless. I should know by now, that not much goes exactly to plan in this hobby. At a guess there's 20-30 free-swimming fry in a 15G dirted...

    A. Cacatuoides biotope with a higher pH

    Hello, I'm trying to set up a bit of a biotope tank for some Cockatoo cichlids, but I don't really like the look of blackwater tanks. I've read that A. Cacatuoides also lives in places where the pH is higher (I imagine those places have clearer water as well), but I can't really find anything...
