    Hey i just bought 3 apistos from a LFS near the library in Yishun. The uncle told me they were ap. aggassizi.

    After looking through this forum i realised that i have got 3 Apistogramma agassizii Red. 2 males and one female i suppose. Can anyone give me useful tips about this fish?

    The female will pair up with one of the male A agassizii. Once that happens, it is best to remove the remaining male fish, otherwise it will be killed by the couple.

    Whats the size of your tank? Not recommended to house 2 males to a female. Give them plenty of hiding space beause the male can turn nasty towards the female too.

    Hi, possible to reveal the name of the LFS that you got the fish from?

    I also don't mind getting one male ap. aggassizi from you as I now left with a female.

    Please settle pricing and shop names offline via PMs etc. Some shops really do not like their prices to be listed and compared online.

    Thank you.
