tolstoy21 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 (edited) Was waiting for this guy to flare his tail. About 200 photos in I decided he won the waiting contest. Third shot is of the wifey.

AquaHobbyist123 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Beautiful Fish! I would like to try keeping apistogramma some day, and those look absolutely stunning (wish I coulda seen the male's tail flared up though) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anitstuk Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 What size tanks can you keep them in? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This pair is in a 20 gallon high by themselves. I've also had them in a 10 gallon when I first got them, as a temporary holding place. They were fine in the 10 and to my surprise had a decent sized spawn shortly after I put them in there. But, a 20 gallon feels more appropriate and is ample room for them Edited August 2, 2022 by tolstoy21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nabokovfan87 Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 Legitimately thought that first photo was of the most amazing bolivian ram I've ever seen! Then I saw the tail. 😂 Absolutely awesome photos and fish. Nice!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friller Posted August 2, 2022 Share Posted August 2, 2022 That is a good looking apisto! Haven't heard of this species before, I'll have to look into them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
