RE: sunset apisto advice

["Barry, Don" <DBarry@demattia.com>]

Stan,
I don't know if you are planning on keeping these fish together but I would
advise against it.  Recently I posted a question regarding a mysterious "fin
rot" problem I had which I now humbly admit was the result of housing these
two species together.  It wasn't too bad until they grew up.  It escalated
into a kind of death match in which the Panduros eventually emerged
victorious.  Quite a sad way to learn a lesson really.  Particularly with
this list as a reference resource.  I for one will never make that mistake
again.  Fish that beautiful deserve better.

Hi,
Just picked up some apistos this evening.  I got two amazing pair of
wild A. atahualpa (sunset apisto-apologize if I spelled it wrong), and a
trio of A. panduro.

I would love to breed both these fish.  I have heard that the panduro
are not very hard to breed, if your water is good, but have not heard
much about the sunset apisto.  Has anyone here bred and raised the fry
successfully?  I would love any advice I could get on these wonderful
fish.  My water is very soft, and has a ph of 6.8.  Thank you in
advance.  Stan
