Re: Stray Apistos -Reply



Hi Kathy,
hi everybody,

Kathy i would really like to get Mike's spawning report on A.gibbiceps. Thank you  in advance.

That formerly mentioned diagonal-stripes-thing was it to make me think it's gibbiceps. I think i've had a single male before (10 yrs ago) that grew out to more than 3''
and lived for nearly 2 years in one of my tanks - they seem to be rare. This time i was luckier than before to be able to pick up 3 of these guys - hope there is really a
female amongst them. I'll keep you updated.

First thing to do is lower pH and hardness step by step.
