Apistogramma hongsloi II

[Cacatuoides]

JUst to share my recent addition from biotope....

Sorry for the blurry pic....the fish is still stressed in my spare tank for acclimatising, the colors are just superb!!

[Wackytpt]

Look like you gotten yourself a gem too.

Good to see all you guys getting quality fishes.

[Cacatuoides]

Thanks Nicholas....I'm sure you'll also get yourself a gem too

This guy has excellent coloration at this moment, I'm sure it will improve greatly after pumping him up with more good stuff seldom see a hongsloi with so much redness in it, plus a yellow face too....will give it more time to settle down in its new home

[Wackytpt]

Nope. I didn't get anything.

Still haven't had the chance to the fishes.

Wait for your fish to settle down in the tank then take a better picture.

Where the female picture?

eman, let's go get cyclopeeze for our new purchases...astaxathin = very red fish naturally enhanced wish i could use the raw astaxathin i have sitting in my fridge, but i don't want to feed beefheart to my apistos

P.S. I claim partial responsibility for eman's new gem! i encouraged him strongly to get it while he was ogling at it

[Cacatuoides]

Oh yes, thanks to Yi Xiang who has put in so much good words otherwise I would have missed the "GEM" and left the shop!!

I've used cyclopeeze before, it hardly sinks, maybe I should take it out and use it again....I bought a small bottle at Sera Centre....or perhaps get the cyclopeeze flakes?

[illumnae]

the viejitas and macmasteri were still in the tanks when i left yesterday...they're beauties too, maybe you can get those richard

[genes]

Nice specimen eman. Reminds me of my previous Ap. Hongsloi.

[leeruisheng]

Looking good. Yup lots of redness. I liked.

[leeruisheng]

What's the difference between hongsloi II, I and just honglsoi?

[Cacatuoides]

More pictures...
Trying my best to get a good shot with a point and shoot camera

[trident]

eman,
looks like it's quite stable now, venturing out in the open.

Handsome looking male... Making me really itchy to venture into Apisto

[Cacatuoides]

An advance welcome to the Apisto Club!!!

You'll never regret your membership!!

[leeruisheng]

I must say that the female looks excellent.

[iwishweallcouldwin]

looks good eman, whats the rectangular cave like things inside your tank? you planning to breed them in those?

[Cacatuoides]

Thats a rectangular ceramic cave besides the other types of ceramic caves available for them to breed in more choices for them

[iwishweallcouldwin]

haha i see, where did you get them? do those retangular caves have one or two openings? you succeeded in breeding apistos in them before?

[sheng]

I saw C328 selling them before
