Apisto's

[stevereade]

Just wondered if Apisto's are ok with all plants? I have a planted tank and din't want them to rip anything to shreds.

Yep, fine with plants. In fact they enjoy a planted tank

yup, love plants, mine seem to occupy the anubius alot

Mine have taken to burying themselves in java moss clumps...
Definitely plant safe as said.

the more plants the better to get there best colours

I have 5 in my tank and they all absolutely love the plants, the denser the planting the better. One of my females has even taken to using the cover of the trailing silk plant I have in my tank.
No probs whatsoever with them nibbling the plants, they just seem to love the cover they get.

Cool think I'll get a pair to go with my mass of Cardinals once its established

you could have 1 male to 2 or 3 females (depending on tank size)

I would start off with 1 male and 2 females and see how they go and then work up but that's what I have personally found best

They love plants and small places to get into, they are bottom dwellers but occasionally they will wonder up to the middle section. Anubius on bog wood is a fab plant, esp with anubius roots, they love it!
