Someone say Apisto?!

[newbie_dave]

What would be good fish to go with my apistos? I have 4 Cory and that's it

 

[Brookster123]

What size tank?

 

[newbie_dave]

It's a 20L mate not sure what else put in

 

[Brookster123]

20 gal long? Not 20 liter.. Do a school of something.. For instance with my apisto's in my 29 I have 8 rummynose tetras and 6 hexazona barbs... The rummynose are all over the tank while the barbs stay lower.. Makes for a nice scene with everyone one their own zones.. You could prob do a school of 8-10 smaller (1-1.5") fish...

 

[newbie_dave]

Yeah it's a 20g long it looks so empty I have plants and stuff in for them to hide in so you see a cory evey now and then but part from that I looks empty haha

 

[Brookster123]

Ya, I'll bet.. Get some more fish! Rummy nose tetras are my recommendation..

 

[newbie_dave]

Yeah think I will have a look for some but it will have to wait till tomorrow as I have to go to work :-(

 

[Brookster123]

Do both!! I have a drill in one hand and AA on my phone in the other

 

[newbie_dave]

I drive a fork lift could be dangerous haha

 

[Brookster123]

Haha yah you'd better just focus on that, it would be like that YouTube video if the guy knocking down the whole warehouse...we'll talk tetras later!!

 

[newbie_dave]

Yeah for sure speak soon

 

[newbie_dave]

Just walked over to my tank and my male cac swam away and looks like he was hiding behind a plant, "dude come out I can see your fins" haha

 

[Brookster123]

He's saying if I can't see you than you can't see me!! Mine was checking out my new phone last night...

Brookster i think there's something up with my male cac he ain't his normal bright coloured self he is beige I tried to get a picture but the one I have posted is the best I could get

 

[Brookster123]

Can you get a better pic? Acting normal? Eating?

He seems angry at every thing he's chasing the female but then he is displaying doing the whole jaw thing they ate fine this morning before I went to work I have just come in and turned the light on and he was beige it seemed as if he is gasping but then he starts this whole tail whipping thing these are the best I can get he keeps hiding

 

[Brookster123]

Looks fine to me.. maybe it's just spawning behavior.. is he like backing up towards the female while tail whipping?
