    Nice guide! I recently set up 2 black water tanks with oak leaves and alder cones, one tank has 6 hongsloi and the other 6 Bitaeniata, 2 males and 4 females of each so fingers crossed!

    Thanks for this one! Quite relevant to me at the moment. I'm trying to breed Bolivian Rams and separately, blue black Rams. Had the Bolivians spawn once so far, got to wrigglers, then I think they ate them. I'll keep trying though 🙂👍

    • @TheUrbanFishkeeper
      @TheUrbanFishkeeper  3 роки тому +1

      Hey Eddy, yip the challenge seems to get them to spawn. They may eat the fry the first few times, but then they should be okay.

    Hi I'm from Ireland, I'm about to move my male and female apistos " peacock " to a well established 70L tank with plants and 3 coconut caves I have the leaf in there too. Thing is the tank is in he sitting room it is blacked out on all there sides and there's only 2 people including myself living here its mostly me in the room so not a huge amount of traffic my question is though will even thst small amount of human traffic stop them fro. Spawning? Thanks in advance.

    • @TheUrbanFishkeeper
      @TheUrbanFishkeeper  2 роки тому +1

      Hi Tina, no the traffic will not stop them. When they are ready they will spawn. Sometimes when young pairs or new parents, they may eat the first spawn, but with apistos they are normally very good parents.

      Thank you so much, iv been under the impression I should remove the male after spawning because the female won't want him around any truth in that?
