Apistogramma Cacatuoides Breeding Project

Liking this thread...can you post to Devon??? :/ as a tank warming pressie? ;)
 
Congrats on the spawn.

I am on the hunt for a female Cacatuoides to go with my male below, lost the female 2 weeks ago.

I bought a nano to have a crack at breeding them, my LFS have just taken delivery of some Agasizzi so will try those first I think as can get a pair now and Apistos aren't offered for sale here very often at all
