[kizno1]

ok thanx

 

[kizno1]

ive got a couple more questions
what should i feed the adult apisto
how should i get the food to the fry without the other fish eating it
and do i need to seperate the fry when there born

 

[ALW]

1st: Flake food five times a week + Live food (Bloodworms, Tubifex, Brine Shrimp etc) about twice a week
2nd: You could use a plastic Syringe or a Turley baster and release the food near the fry
3rd: The fry should fine with the parents for a week or so (although the parents can and may begin eating them soon after they hatch, it depends on the parents some are great other are not). Do you have a spare tank for the fry?

 

[kizno1]

can it be frozen food not live food and can they fry eat the frozen food
yh but it will only be 5g
