yes.. i bought at Hong Yang..
there are 2 driftwoods.. i kind of like them after i setup the tank
thanks![]()
nice set up bok! just new here in sg...im from philippines and now living in toa payoh area...just wanted to ask you what and where is the nearest fish shop in our area that has an available apistos...thanks in advance..
hi, you can go to amk mo kio JZX. the boss had some apisto in stock.
i went around to look for apisto. like my agassizii bought from aquaone.
How's the apisto stock at aquaOne? BTW, any bus to get there?
The female agassizi looks like a male fish to me.
the stock there are good. worth to visit them.
there is no bus to aquaone.. i walked all the way in. it is a indeed female agassizii as it's color not as nice as the male.
anyway, my male agassizii too fierce till i need to seperate it out from the female and the lonely male borelli.
both of their tails and fins are broken. sigh
The male aga is very fierce to the female may be because your female is actually a sneaker.
what do you mean by that?
The female may be a male.
i see, if that so, i will need to bring the "female" back to exchange back.
but somehow i observe that the "female" had a very big and round stomach.
the female agassizi should be smaller in size, less colorful and the tail should be round instead of the spade shape.
The pics of my female agassizi red, for your reference

had read up the link that you show, somehow the "female" photo that i took look bigger in size as she stay nearer to the glass wall. The male had been changing the "female" for days till i seperated the male to isolated breeding box as he was too fierce for the "female" and my lonely male borelli. I did realise that my "female" does not like to hide inside the cave i got for them.
Is it a sign of the agassizii pair ready to mate? from what i see, the "female" tummy is real big.
extra information, my borelli male and agassizii male been fighting each other but agassizii is too fierce for borelli to handle.
Tummy is real big maybe be a bloated stomach. Monitor the fish more bro.
cheers i also bought my apistos ftom hong yang
when female ready to mate they will turn bright yellow coat out of the normalities. then you will see the male trying to spin its tail on the female face . then they are ready. the yellow coat will last very long to almost the fries hatching. during this time the male will hide and on the top of tank trying to get its rests and healing as its spade fins will be gone
some pics to share just fyi(sorry for blur pics)

nice, not sure is that a female or not, but the "female" color is sure not as colourful as the male and the "female" is smaller size comparing with the male.
will moniter the "female" on bloated stomach. Thanks for advice
sad to update that my apistogramma borelli male had die on me due to an open wound at its body.
Bought a pair of new apistogramma agazzisii flemengo.
but once i put into my tank, the male flemengo start to fight with both my double red pair.
decide to put double red in my satelite breeding box.
Male apisto behaves like Male Betta, as in they will fight. Try not to put them together.
