Keeping fish as pets can be a rewarding hobby.
Designing and maintaining your aquariums is a wonderful creative outlet.
Watching your fish swim around is both relaxing and fun.
Eugene,
Very swee.

Genes, very nice photography.. am curious, how many slave flashes were used?
Able to take a photo of the female?
Scope, great fish.
It's NOT "Chee lick", NOT "Chee Chee Licks"!!! Cichlids is pronounced as "Sick Lids"!!!!!
Andy, it is not from Biotope. But it belongs to Scope who brought back from Taiwan.Originally Posted by doubleace
Yorky, I have a gut feeling Eugene might use 2 to 3 slave flashes

The full orange face of this specimen is seldom seen. Which makes this specimen a great one!Thanks Scope for lending me for the shoot.
I didn't take the female from Scope. You have Ap. sp. miua too right? Shoot the female. Then we can combine the pictures and do a profile of this specie in the forum.
For these shots, i used only 2 flashes.

Eugene,
This is a very nice male. I've seen it for myself at Joe's house. Nevertheless, I got a separate pair whereby the male is younger and the female has orange anal fin (highly recommended by Joe).
By the way, has anyone ever bred this species locally yet?

Thanks Genes for taking such good photos on the MIUA....only good photos will clearly bring out the beauty of the fish.
Thanks for the efforts.
Hi bro,Eugene,

this fish (Orange face type) is from another different wild batch that i recently bring in
... the one you get got orange at anal fin...even on the males too... from all other 6pcs i brought too. i guess these differences are found in MIUA from slightly different location of collection.
Are you taking photo on your pair too?

Excellent photography and beautiful

Wow...eugene, you really can take very nice pictures! I was there at scope's place and saw that piece of rare Miua also. It looked even better in your picture man. Well done!

Hi Joe,
I don't have photography gadget to take any photos to show you.
Nevertheless, the orange face "Miua" is sort of nicer than my orange arse "Miua".
Anyone has any idea on what kind of aquatic livestocks dwell together with Apisto sp. "Miua" ??
Your usual fare of planted tank fishes will be fine.
