Apistogramma sp. Abacaxis

[Ruki]

I made yesterday some nice photos of my A. sp. "Abacaxis" male.

:biggrin:

It's a very nice apisto.

Amazing looking Apisto. Very beautiful!

I'm wondering what the female looks like as well?
Have you been able to snap any good photos of a female? Or, better yet, female w/ fry??:wink:

Unfortunately I don't have any photos of females with fry. I have those fishes from 9 days ago and first spawn didn't go smoothly because of renovation in my home. :frown:


Here photo of one female and male. If i take more I'll show you. :wink:

This is a female A. sp. "Abacaxis" with some of her fry...as you see, the fry like BBS.

Tom, is this fish wildcaught?

I can't prove it, but she was sold me as wildcaught.

Ruki,

Your 'female' has a pattern of spots on the caudal fin. I have never seen a spotted caudal on a female of Abacaxis. Are you sure it is a female??

Hello Ruki,
agree with mike, very colourful femail with spots. Looks like a sleeper male maybe. Hope not for your sake. Cheers jk :biggrin:

On this world we have things about which philosophers(or, more adequate to situation, Apistogramma specialists :biggrin: ) haven't dreamed. :biggrin:

Very "original" female you have. :biggrin:
Now I'm searching for females of A. gibbiceps. I have two lonely guys. :frown:

 

[Ruki]

Few days ago female still was guarding something, but I haven't seen any fry. :frown:
