yes, males are deep red and females are more of an orange.

I have a pair of barbs right now.... the male constantly is following the female... hmm,... looks like they just did a bit of flipping and what not. Guess I'll have to keep a look out. But what if cant see the back of the driftwood? Since that was where the female was last night for a few minutes?

the Apistos are peaceful Cichlids, so she's wrong... there is the random case that there is an extremely aggressive cichlid.. but rare from what I've heard.

Will they do well with the Apisto's?

Any suggestions for a nother type? Doesn't have to be tetras... but figured something about there size. I like Platies... but they are bigger than tetras and not sure if they're good with cichlids

I'm wanting either neons or rummynose tetras. Hmm.. then would 3 ottos work instead of 5 cories?

at a pool store. :) Walmart -MAY- carry it in thier pool section... at least here in florida they had a pool area in the fall. hmm.. I'd go for the pool store

I personally feed my ADF Shrimp pellets that sink to the bottom and then when it gets wet it seperates which the frog loves... they have no problem eating it.. might be an idea as well..

That's awesome... I wonder if alot of lfs do that.. would be a nice thing I'm wondering if these would be alright for my 20 gallon.. one pair of Apisto Cichlids 6 tetras 3 pygmy cories/panda cories or ottos... not sure if that's okay or not... would like input.

So what do you do with the fry you raise? Do you put it back into tanks you have or sell them.. or what? :) Thanks for the welcome and reply.

So I got myself a 20 gallon... 1' wide, 2' long and abou 16'' high. Anyways, I really want to get the Apisto cichlids... but my only problem is... what do you do with the baby fry that survive from spawnings? I mean they're gunna keep spawning.. they're like lil sex machines, or so I hear. So...
