The altispinosa I had a few years ago would dig pits and lay eggs in there. I had them in a 55 gal. with Discus and other fish. The biggest male would breed with a female one end, then a week later breed with another female on the other end. Most fry got eaten by their tankmates, but enough survived that it became a population problem. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@majordomo.pobox.com.
