    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    Just went to Aquaone again today to acquire 2 new pairs. Dun Think much stock except Ap. Borelli only added in. I find that he have 1-2 T.Candidi males that looks promising but I don't have much space anymore.

    Bro Vic,
    Both shop at C328 and AquaOne having same stock.
    Last friday i just went to C328 and new stock of Ap. Agassizii,Ap. Viejita and Ap.Borelli just came in. But they are either place beside the payment counter or inside the betta tanks.You will need to really search for it. Not really in good condition if you get from the plastic bag.

    Yesterday i also went to AquaOne and their stock also just add in. They are placed much better conditions. Their Ap.Agassizii Red/Tefe stock is also not bad. But for Ap.Viejita,you may need to check again as i don't see any more female yesterday. His Ap. Viejita Gold is also nice looking together with Ap. Inka50 and they are place in another tank as their price is on a different range.

    You can also try out JZX at AMK and their stock are from their previous peru shipment. But the apisto they have are not on my wanted list though.

    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    I just went to JZX just now to see the leftover stocks and got tempted by his Ap. Gephyra. The male is colouring up well but with a small tear on the tail....he got 3 females so hope the one that i got as female is not a sneaker male.

    Hi, so you were the one taking the pair just now? Hahaha, I was there as well!

    Anyway, does anyone know if the macmasteri sold by JZX and Aquaone are correctly sexed? Both males and "females" are equally colourful, it just feels like all of them are males.

    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    i saw the ones at aquaone and was skeptical on the female. very colourful indeed. any idea why my agassizii male does not seem interested to fertilise the eggs? seems like second spawn and the female keeps trying to seduce the male in to the cave, but he just swims past it or isnt even interested. interesting to see the way the female tries to lead him to the cave though. could the male be infertile?

    Some males are just not interested in spawning. I had a male agassizii that refused to spawn, even if I tried several ways to trigger them to spawn. Female was bright yellow ready to lay but the male was just going about looking for food.

    yes this is what i am currently experiencing. will monitor for a few more spawns then decide if I should get another male. by the way what agassizii is this? alenquer? Might need to find another male of same species.

    hi bro Cueball

    Try - conditioning it with frozen or live food, put mirror for it to flare, put female in separate tank but within sight of male, lowering temperature to around 24%, do 50% water change, get some water from a tank with breeding fish (apparently, the hormones will alter the water composition) & put in tank.

    I used to have problems with breeding but, this time around, I have Mamore, trifasciata, Hoignei fries. I even have Viejita Gold eggs but unfortunately, they disappeared overnight.

    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    Bro Benjamin,
    Yes, i was the one that took the pair of Ap. Gephyra from JZX last thursday. Intended to take his Bitaeniata pair but they are infected with white spots. Think he are left with 2 females. For the macmasteri/viejita i suspect that most of them are males only. Maybe you can try out C328 but do recheck on the female because they may be wrongly label.

    Bro Cueball,
    The agassizii is Ap. Agassizii Alenquer. Saw only two types of Agassizii in the market now,Alenquer and double red. I think you can easily get another male. Mine is actually the opposite. The female is not interested at all or maybe because they are in a community tank. Male is always flashing in front of the female. Hope they do not breed or i'm in trouble.

    Cueball, you cannot tell which population of agassizii this male comes from. I did see a similar male at C328 earlier.

    Spotted the following at C328 - borelli, agassizii (could not make out population name), caca orange flash, Taeniacara candidi.

    Yes, but the pairing is dependent on whether the female will accept the male. You can always try.

    hi bro Ichise

    Bits are easy to get. And they come in different varieties - shushupe, shishita, maniti being the most common.

    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    I don't think you can find any AP. Bitaeniata in any LFS at the moment. Been searching for them for 1 month but couldn't find any except JZX but his stock are juvenile pair and was down with white spot previously. Didn't see the pair when i was there yesterday.

    Stone have 2 type of Bit under his pre-order list. Thinking of getting both type one of these days.
