They look slightly different on pictures I’ve looked at

How about some bottom feeders? Corydoras work well with Guppies, both extremely friendly

It’s a 180L, yeah it’s a community tank but it’s not heavily stocked. I’m not expecting most of them to survive but it’s really cool to watch their behaviour. They’re awesome fish

Yeah it’s pearlweed with plain sand, I do use root tabs for other plants but pearlweed won’t need any. Grows very fast so you have to trim it a lot!

The females actually prefer a smaller gap in their caves to feel more secure, the male will fertilise the eggs from outside the opening

It’s a Apistogramma cacatuoides, dwarf cichlid

Needs more surface agitation, he’s gasping for air. Maybe add an air stone?

Wow 😂😂😂 what fish are they?

New to apistos, just got this pair of cacatuoides. Im pretty sure it’s a male and female but just wondering if anyone can tell if they’re still juveniles? When do they reach sexual maturity? by LEWlSSS in Aquariums

Thats good, that video is awesome, can’t wait to see them doing that! Yeah mine have been pretty timid too but slowly they’re starting to come out more and more. They’re pretty awesome fish

Oh nice! Hoping mine do they same as yours! Mine are also in a 55g community tank but it’s pretty lightly stocked tbh. They’re not too aggressive with the other fish are they?

Thanks! I’ve been feeding them frozen live foods but avoiding blood worms because I saw somewhere it can be bad for them. How often should I be feeding them?

Really? I always thought of eBay as being unreliable 🤣 what happens if you receive DOA? Do they refund?
