    A better moss than Java is called Taiwan moss. Faster ,greener and not wiry. Apistogramma are really for experts as they have conditions that have to be exact for them to thrive. Very good water, high quality foods, high temperatures, and only certain tankmates for them to do well. That new fish from Africa looks like a winner!

    • @FishTankBarn
      @FishTankBarn 4 дні тому

      Thanks for the suggestion on the moss. I really like the Pseudocrenabilus nicholsi (the new fish from Africa). My take on the Apistos is more for the cacatuoides which are generally a little bit easier than some of the other ones.

    These fish are great little guys. I personally would suggest not housing them with Poecilia genus since they're so closely related and there's currently debate in the scientific community whether they can hybridize. Thanks for making this video Mike and getting the info out. Since they're critically endangered and we have now gotten them on the CARES list we need to spread awareness of this species.

    • @FishTankBarn
      @FishTankBarn 5 днів тому

    The only thing they could do is make the 70 so it fits on a 75 gallon tank. The 110 is too big for a 75 when just want to run with a canister filter.

    • @FishTankBarn

      Good point on size. You could put shims on the back of the 110 to make it fit better. I have done that in the past.

      @ there are tons of of hobbyists that have successfully hybridized them, not to mention genetic analysis shows micropoecilia is actually a subgenus of poecilia and they are related to endlers more than mollies are yet endlers can also create hybrids with mollies :)
