hey guys,
long time lurker! first time poster
anywho, two weeks ago I got my first batch of apisto's they were labed "double reds apistos" later research, I found out they're Apistogramma agassizi
I managed to get 1 male and 5 females (mind you for the life of me I can only ever find 2 or 3 females at a time)
but over the last three days one of my females turned bright yellow with bold red fins, and sitsunder a fake slate rock all day.
and now the male who used to chase her, is chased off by her and just tries to beat up my rams (which just take the abuse and don't seem to even mind it)
now I can't find any eggs just by look as she picked out a spot were I can't see all of the cave, but does what I discribed here mean theres a good chance I've got some eggs in there some were? or is this some other behavor I haven't read about and I'm mistaking it for post spawning behavor?
