I'm new to te breeding of Apisto's and have gone head frist into breeding them for resell to my local fish store. I have over 20pairs of all differnt spices and M looking for some advise on breeding them. I've heard alot about the alka. kh of the water having to be low to almost 0 before breeding starts. Is this ture? If so how does one get it down mine stays right at 300ppm.
At what age do they start breeding ? I know I'm new to the Apisto game but have keep them before. So I'm not going into this without any knowlege of them so please don't say you should have thought before you jumped. I maded a post on another site and all I got was people putting me down for getting so many and not having room for them and not knowing anything about them. Will I know about them some. I'm not a rocket scinetis on them but know some and have been reading anything I can get my hands and eyes on on them. Also I thank that with all my tanks there is eongh room for all I have plues a couple more. As they only need the space of a 10gal tank for each pair. Maybe alittle more but still I have over 450gals in tank space for all.
So any help on the how to's and the water alka/kh ppm will be greafully thankful and if alka has to be low an help on how to get it down will also be greatfully thank ful.
Thanks before hand on all repiles.
p.s. Now in all the reading I've done on the breed it wasn't til I got to this site that I read anything about the alkal. of the water having to be at 0 to breed. Most of all I read says they well breed in just about any water prims. As long as there is hiding places and lots of plants. Is that ture?
