nicktc's Apistogramma bitaeniata

[nicktc]

Got the pair of bitaeniata with the additional 'B' word written on the tank. Wonder what it stands for?

Pics of the fishes, still off color.

one of the bitaeniata that cost higher right? nice! like the blueish part at the bottom of the fins. Update us when he show out his full colors.

I was pretty sure they look more reddish at C328.
Will probably have to wait till Sunday to get some new pics.

Bro Andy..

Ya.. I think that is the pair he is referring to at the betta rack one.. The higher priced Bitaeniata pair.. The male is extremely colourful in my opinion..

not a bad specimen of A. bitaeniata. looks like the quality of farm bred fish is going up, based on C328's recent shipments

[nicktc]

Actually, I was enticed by this fellow pelvic fins

Eventually caused the first hole in my pocket for 2008.

Bro,

The B stands for Best of Breed, . Solid pair you got there, congrats.

Ap. bitaeniatas have always been my favourite apistos. Very nice male and female you have nick. Both look very well fed and females seems ready to spawn. Very good buy at a decent price.

Don't worry about the hole in your pocket. It'll heal in no time for your next purchase.

Didn't many of us caution you guys after reading so much on apistogrammas that these fishes are poisonous? Infectious?

[doubleace]

Yup correct.. went to C328 just now and that pair were gone.. nice catch! Do update us when they're stable espically their color.

[Zenislev]

Seems that C328's apisto standards have really gone higher.

nick,
excellent pair! the color is just so beautiful, blue, yellow.
worth the hole in your pocket.

[thanantosis]

hmmmm, i guess i got to drop by c328 soon too check out their stock

still got some spare tank for 1 pair haha..

pocket burning

[trident]

thanantosis,
aiyah, next time go early a bit lah, now most of the nicer fish all gone.
By all means drop by for a look. But I think wait for next batch, go early
for better selection.

[thanantosis]

hai, sad hahahah

i think they going to have Apistogramma cacatuoides new stock today!

but since i already got a pair.

i think i will wait and look out for bitaeniata, or agassizii

[doubleace]

C328 coming in new stock of ap. cacatuoides?

[thanantosis]

i just call them. only 2 pair come in. hmmm wondering whether to go down see or not. uncle only say cacatuoides red. ha

Hi..

Nice pair you got there.. Wish I have a female bitaeniata like yours too.. Very intense yellow colour..

I went C328 on Tuesday night.. There was a new pair of Bit "B" at the betta rack.. Very nice finnage as well.. Also there was a leftover Bit "B" female at the back where they usually house leftover Apisto..

Recently there were quite a number of confusions in determining the sex of Bit especially at C328 where the colour is washed up usually under that kind of condition.. I personally bought a pair where I have to sell away the sneaker male cheaply and buy another female for my bit.. Hee.. Maybe it will be safer to get a pair of those Bit "B" rather than the common ones..

Regards

Here's an update of the pair. Have shifted them to a 1ft tank, all by themselves now.

nick,
The pair is turning out beautifully, the cheek is so blue.

Thanks richard.

Managed to get some pics with the help of a mirror last night.
