L134 with apistogramma Hongsloi

Post by smartinlp »

Hi

I got 5 l134 in a 35 gallon tank all by themselves.
I have seen some discussions where its argued that Apistogramma goes well with L134.
I got at Apistogramma Hongsloi trio and I was wondering if they all could get along.
I'm a little worried about what happens if or when the apistos get eggs.

I hope someone has some experience in this?

Hi all,
I got at Apistogramma hongsloi trio and I was wondering if they all could get along. I'm a little worried about what happens if or when the apistos get eggs.

The eat them if they can get in the cave at night. If they can't, you may be all right.

I've kept with and and , in each case without any successful fry. This has been in very weedy tanks with lots of cover.

In the same tanks I've had plenty of successful fry raisings where were present, but no other Loricariids.

Thanks, Darrel.

After reading about your experiences, I rather give the Apistos their own tank,
