Dwarf Cichlids

[Hernandezj11]

Hey AC!
Currently I have a 55 planted aquarium and I really want to get a pair of dwarf cichlids to breed. The only one that I have really set my eyes on is this one:Apistogramma sp. "Steel Blue" or A. borellii.
Does any one on AC selling them and any helpful hints to share about them?

I don't have those but I am breeding 5 species of apisto now. Make sure you ahve some good caves (coconut huts work awesome) and some areas of planting for teh fry to hide out and for them to graze on infusoria those first several days. Really they do all the work as far as parenting. Really rewarding fish to keep, not to mention stunning.

Thanks for the info, I think my tank pretty much covers that. I have a tank shot in one of my albums, I currently building up my plants now... But what kind are you raising and would you be interested in selling?

Where do you live? I'm in MA, and Ned's in Millis always has a few apisto varities, and almost always has borellii.
