Preem........ A. rubrolineata are not too picky. The hardness does not seem to be a particular problem. I've had viable incidental spawns in medium hard water and a pH of about 7. I was not looking for them to spawn but they did! This new apisto is really a good beginner fish. Like a Pandy, the Rubro is out front like a puppy dog all of the time. Very little hiding easy to feed and it seems relatively easy to spawn! Have a great week!
