Wasatchaquatics Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Just saying hi! I’m a long time fish keeper and only started my fishroom about 5-6 years ago. Previously I was breeding bettas, guppies, and saltwater clownfish. I tore it out last year, sold all my freshwater stuff off (except my goldfish) and focused on saltwater for a while. I soon got too tired of saltwater and in April started building my fishroom back up with freshwater. I’m focusing on dwarf cichlids, plecos, live bearers, medaka rice fish, killies, and top view goldfish (currently wakins and top view ranchu). -Ian 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I am a big fan of Apistogramma, what kind of dwarf cichlids are you focusing on? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wasatchaquatics Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 Right now I’ve got breeding pairs of pitch black rams and Orange Flash cacatuoides. I’m looking at a few other species to add but I’m taking my time choosing since we have such awful water here and I don’t like running RO so much. Any suggestions on species? I’m always up for suggestions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 I like Apisto nijsseni because they are good parents and the females look cool. They seem relatively flexible about water parameters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What type of rice fish do you have?? I’m keeping orange, gold, and platinum white. Hoping to add a few more varieties once I perfect my systems. I’m only seeing a handful of fry at a time since I’m not pulling mops fast enough. Edited August 19, 2020 by Wasatchaquatics 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
