Apistogramma cacatuoides "Orange"

[goody992828]

Hi Guys

Yesterday manage to drop by Y618 and spotted this pair of apisto and can't help bringing it back home despite I am a newbie in keeping them. The colour is just so beautiful... hence was thinking to post here and share with experts for comments.

Hi Bro

Pardon me for asking.

Any different between the name of Caca Orange & Orange Flash? Please help to enghlithen me as I am a beginner which does not really know how to compare the difference between species.

Thanks in advance.

Hi bro thanks

Sorry mind to decode what is FTS??? Do you mean the substrate I use? It is ADA africana 2.

You dont see any "black marking" that why it is called "orange flash".
What commonly found in the market are "Triple Red" & "Double Red", it all depend on the black markings. There are also rare type such as the Apistogramma cacatuoides "Gold"

Ok, manage to find this thread for you " Differences of Apistogramma cacatuoides "triple red", "double red" and "orange flash" "

Hi Bro, nope did not see any there. only two pairs of Orange Caca and one more pair not sure one is it, but the female seems like cannot make it as the male are too agressive keep chasing it female.

Thanks bro,

It is always hard to see those fishes or Shrimp that you like die just like that..... well but think maybe it die of my in experience of keeping apisto... will try to find him some new mates this time round. By the way any ideas where to buy just females caca?

[exotic_idiot]

Caca if you check closely there're quite a few different strains like caca orange what you have, they also have caca triple red, double red, careiro...
If you want to buy back the same ones, i advice you order from the shop(Y61..
If not funny funny colours and pattern will come out on the offspring heheee

Yup mostly they charge like a pair for $30 divided by 2.
So just a female maybe $15 or few dollars higher..!
Good luck in searching but I'll suggest you to order 2 females instead..
Make it a trio(1m&2f) so that next time any female die you still got backup

saw biotope having them few weeks ago when i went there. Not sure for now as the owner told me they are bringing in different wild specimens this month.

[exotic_idiot]

Before they move or after?
