Hi All,

Finally borrowed a decent camera to get some clearer shots of my Agassizii pair.

I've had them about 6 months and the female regularly spawns, no fry seen as of yet, they must be learning the process! :)

The male is beautiful the pics do not do him enough justice!

How hard, what pH is your water. If it's above about 1 kH, and more than 6.8 acid the eggs fail to hatch. This is a common problem with some apistos - they survive in water with more than trace hardness, but you can't get eggs to hatch - I had this problem with aggassizi, panduro and nijssenni. Others , like cacatuoides and eunotus where wholly unaffected.

Sorry Dan just got back from 3 weeks away!

I picked these fish up from a LFS in Luton, they were the last pair at the time, however there is a very good Apisto Breeder based in High Wycombe worth checking out.

I wouldn't house any dwarfs with Kribs unless you have a big enough tank, kribs would make the apistos life hell!

Most tetras make good house mates and my cory's are also doing well with them
