Leo2o915 Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Was thinking of making it a apistogramma tank or pea puffer tank ? What y’all think or what else would look good that can possible breed or just for looks ? Thanks in advance for ur opinions I love getting people’s opinions:). PS got these three plants for it 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy's Fish Den Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 First off....Happy Birthday! That tank would be perfect for either species you mentioned. If you're wanting to do some breeding, then go for an Apisto species, and you can have some small tetras or rasboras something swimming in the mid and upper levels of the tank. Good luck and be sure to show off whatever you decide to do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shkote Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Happy Birthday! 🥳 A Fluval Flex 15 would make a very nice Apisto tank. There's so many to choose from. Would love to see pics once it's up and running and stocked. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Want to add the stratum substrate to help lower ph a little mine at sound 7.6 would they still breed at that ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shkote Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I only have experience with Cacatuoides and Macmasteri, I keep both in harder water and higher pH without issues and the Cacatouides are showing spawning behaviors. I think it will probably depend on the type you decide to keep. Unfortunately my experience with Apistos stops there so I cant advise what would do best for you, but I'd love to see what you end up getting. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shkote Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I really like the Macmasteri. Very good looking fish. Still looking for females though. They each have their own 20 gallon set up. They're a bit shy, probably because they're alone at the moment. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaylynnWall Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 (edited) Setting up a Fluval Flex 15 sounds like a blast. Apistogrammas or pea puffers are both cool choices. Breeding apistos could be a rewarding project, and pea puffers have tons of personality. It's all about what tickles your fancy and what you enjoy watching in your tank. And hey, those plants you got are a great start for a lush aquatic paradise. Speaking of gifts, I feel you! Finding the perfect one can be a challenge. Recently, my buddy's getting hitched, and I'm thinking of getting him something swanky like wedding tuxedos from Gentleman's Guru. They've got some classy options. What do you think?

Tony s Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Apisto females are usually kind of drab. I have heard that panduros color up on both sexes. Not a spectacular as some. But still colorful and hardy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snackbacon Posted February 5 Share Posted February 5 Don't forget to get some fertilizer for your plants as well. I would personally lean toward making it a pea puffer tank, but that is only because that is next on my wishlist 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
