Breedin Apisto Norberti

Hey guys,
I've been planning to breed apistogrammas for a long time now. I finally have everything I need but I can only find Apistos Norberti, one of the species that I researched the least.

I have a 30g and I planned to add a trio but looking into norberti, I see that most people breed them in pairs. What do you guys suggest?

Any advice, tips or anything about Norberti is immensely appreciated!

Add them all to the tank at the same time - and quickly remove the fish that does not pair up. Breeding needs and behaior are similar to A. nijsseni.

Thank you Mike! I have a spare 10g where I'll put the second female until I find her a new home.

Rasmus, thank you for the link, really interesting!

Hi I didn’t know if you still have any of the Apistogramma Cuipeua?
Would be interested if so.
