Apistogramma Megaptera Breeding

[Apistolyfe]

Hello can someone please give me some tips as far as water parameters for Megaptera breeding?

Anyone who has spawned them before or has experience with them.

Regards

I’ve had my pair of Apistogramma Megaptera F1 spawn a few times. In my opinion fairly easy to breed, but they can get quite agressive. I think my water parameters were ph 6-0-6.5 with the kh at arround 2-3 i believe. Temp was arround 25-26 degrees celcius.

Anything else you would like to know?
