Re: Feeding



Patricia,

Depending on temperature your apisto eggs should hatch in about 3 days. You should
have freeswimming fry about 7 days after spawning. On a side note "A. viejita" CF
II is not really A. viejita. It is actually a colorful lacustrine form of an
undescribed species related to A. viejita.
