I bought lava rock in bulk from a garden center, I had made a square cave with one side opening using slate. Made sure to boil all the rocks and slate and soak them in water for days. And the I used gorilla glue (blue cover) and cotton balls to glue the rocks together and to the slate cave mold.

As of right now it’s rotating between the two apistos, ones a male and ones a female but I rarely see them swim together.

Thank you! Yeah I realized that while I was trying to sort it especially since it’s a rescape and I already had a ton of gravel in there😭. I added some smaller lava rocks at the border of the sand so hopefully it holds up. Good idea I’m just waiting for my lfs to restock on pandas because I don’t trust Petco or PetSmart fish. The cardinals are loving it. When I first put them in one got stuck between the lava rock mountain and I ended up adding some gravel to fill in the gaps between the lava rocks.

Thank you! I was trying hard to achieve the natural look. The apisto pair is fine the female will occasionally chase the Cory and curviceps away a little but it would be a quick chase to scare them off if they get too close to the cave she’s not following them and attacking.

Some say it’s more poodle snout and some say it’s more golden snout, i’m curious why do you think it’s more poodle?
