    So, have they decided to go for planted tank or simple low tech tank?

    They decided that aquasoil height not to their expectations. Dug 2 holes and make themselves cosy with the drftwood cave i created for them. My tank not planted as they are well known to uproot plants or substrate. Just tie some mini fissidens on the woods.

    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    For apisto wilhemi, i think you need extremely low pH in order for the eggs to hatch. Previously i got one pair of wilhemi, the female kept spawning but none got hatched.

    As for adoketa, how to sex the female ?

    Re: Apisto chat/LFS watchlist & etc

    Well, might be right about this. I looked though several youtube videos, the female indeed has black gill cover, Also, the female seems to be smaller in size, the black color strip is more intense.

    Best conditioning food will always be live food. You can feed them a mix of foods - Live adult brine shrimp, frozen blood worm, live Daphnia and good quality pellet food. Crushing the Hikari Carnivore Pellets might be a good idea too. Alternative is to culture grindal worms, which can be gut loaded with high protein fish food so they become more nutritious for the fish.

    If you see your Apistos digging, that is a good sign. Excavations of a pit usually mean they are going to spawn, because this is usually done for several reasons.

    1) the pit is a larval deposit, so that the parents can drop off their newborn fry in them to guard easily.
    2) the digging is close to a piece of wood or hideout, which the female has chosen to lay her eggs in.
    3) the female is digging around to find food.

    With bigger dwarves like adoketa, all you need is a bunch of Anubias or Java Fern tied to driftwood, to create a more planted environment, without the mess that occurs when these critters dig all over the places. I've seen videos of really "dirty" tanks in which the adoketas spawned in. This kind of habitat is just perfect for the fry to graze on microfauna when they hatch out.

    @mobile2007, perhaps you can try a mix of 50/50 dechlorinated tap water with distilled water along with ketapang leaves. That might help to increase the fertility rate for your wilhelmi.
