I'm either more aware of apistos so i see them more often at the LFS or they are becoming more available in my neck of the woods. Either way, I'm here for it! Love them so much!

The shy pouty guy is so fantastic! 😍

I love your videos! Please consider doing a video showing all the stockings in your 20 gal long to give an idea to people like me who are scared add a bit more in theirs lol

Maybe I will get back to Apistos someday. I hope so. Just really busy right now and it would not be fair. Your fish are really healthy looking. Nice habitats.

Dude, I love your tanks and apisto’s! Super cool stuff!

Love the Apistos i just pick up a pair of Apistos trifasciata

about a year ago I went to Dallas, about 3 hours from where I live. I visited a fish shop there and bought a pair of apistogramma hongsloi , I brought them home and put them in a very densely planted 20 gallon. they were young and only about an inch long so they disappeared into the jungle growing in the tank. after a week or so I would see them occasionally both were pretty . but then after having them about a month I noticed I was only seeing the male. I watched and waited about 10 more days but never saw the female. so I caught the male and put him in a 40 breeder I had set up for them and completely unplanted and removed all the rocks and wood from the 20 to find the female. but she was gone. completely no sign of her at all. my tanks all have scuds snails and other critters so if a fish dies it gets eaten by the tank pretty quick.... anyway now I have this beautiful male but no female. there are no stores near me that sale apistos at all and I can't find anyone that will sale just females online. I suppose ill have to just try to buy a trio some where and see if that works out......

Really nice video. Thanks to you !

Sweet! Thanks for posting!

McMasteri is definitely one of my favorites, Inka 50 as well. 😊

Love them all. Adore pencilfish 🥰

Nice these fish are cool!

what’s the floating plant in the first tank?? it’s gorgeous

love apistos!

Cool video

10:38 "air-ITH-rura"... not "urethra"

In the first tank with the ortegi (sp?) and the duplicarius, what are those plecos? Never seen them before and they are incredible.

Would you mind sharing your water change schedule for the first tank? Just wondering because I know plecos can carry a pretty hefty bioload and you’re just running the one sponge filter. Appreciate it!

What size tank is the best size to keep Apistogramma in I have a 15g tank all in 1 with a Batt with live plants is that two small for him

I have trifasciata with adolfo cory!! They keep spawning in my 22L 😍🫣There’s 15 little apistos with the mom - although she’s starting to get irritable at the bigger ones. I noticed ur tanks have more open spaces at the bottom - is that better than having rock hardscape? I wonder if mine is too packed… I got feedback from apisto keepers that they need a lot of line of sight blockers? But my tank looks smaller than your’s. Great video and thanks for sharing your setups and faves!!

How old that hongsloi

👍🏻👍🏻

I just checked a book about all kind of small south-american chichlids on A. personata - yeap, even there not much useful information. Most likely black water, prefers the bottom and leaflitter level of small flowing waterways. Nothing on breeding or general care in the aquarium..

Apistogramma personata not so personal

You need to clean your tanks
