I have been on this list for some time and have learned a great deal about apistos. I keep mostly West Africans, BUT! This weekend at the Ohio Cichlid Extravaganza I became an apisto owner. Julio Melgar was there and had some of the most beautiful apistos that I have ever seen. I had no trouble making my choice of a trio of his Apisto "Sunset". The yellows and oranges on those fish are unbelievable! My friend that went with me took home his first apistos, a super blue pair of A. trifaciata. There were quite a few varieties of apistos for sale there and 4 types in the Sunday auction. WoW! What an auction! 10am til after 8pm. About anything you could want. I am really looking forward to keeping these little gems and eventually spawning them. Back to lurking and learning.
