Fish Folk Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 That was fun! Are those wild caught, or tank raised / bred in the hobby? Do you find that a ratio of one male to multiple females is preferable? Are they cave spawners like other Apistos? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eric R Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I have 5 of these in a south american themed planted 55g community tank, three males and two females. Two of the males have paired off with two of the females, leaving one male as the odd man out. They have staked out territory on different ends of the tank, among the plants and leaf litter. One pair is among a large bunch of java fern on the back of a small log cave, and the other is among a think bunch of crypts near some rock work. No spawns yet, fingers crossed! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FrozenFins Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 As much as I love the apistogramma like the orange flash, I really LOVE the wild ones. The panduro, and now the hogsloi! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you’re doing pairs getting them to bond from a larger group will usually get them up and running sooner. They females definitely want caves. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
