Female Apistogramma Honglsoi attack

[Prestorik]

good day

I have a couple of apistogramma Honglsoi about 1 year. And recently the male walks up to attack the female already has a crack in the tail. This is normal?
Are of a 180L aquarium with driftwood, rocks, plants and plenty of hiding places.
Oh and I have a corydora too.
Why does not yet pos female eggs?
PH-6.0
Temp-28

greetings

The temperature seems a little high for apistogramma by the way. (this probably isnt the problem, just noticed it.)

Aggression is fairly normal, you just have to manage it with lots of hiding places for the female. Im not sure whether A. hongsloi are monogamous (single pair) or polygamous (multiple females under a dominant male), but maybe getting another female would help distribute the aggression between the two, and neither would get as much attention.

Of course, if the aggression gets to be too much for her than you will have to separate them.

If the male pairs with one, then you will have to have lots of escapes and hiding places for the remaining female to make sure she doesnt get killed.

Hope this helps.

good afternoon

Thanks for the comment. Regarding the temperature advised me to increase the temperature slightly and lower the PH to help spawn. Now I need to find another female, had already thought of that. But tou see that it will be necessary that he continues to attack the female and she has not hides.
Once you get here, the female will tell how this behavior of male

thank you
