Apistogramma , Dwarf Cichlids In The Aquarium

Apistogramma agassizii are unusual among cichlids in that they make great community fish, provided their tankmates are of similar size. This species does best when kept in pairs or in small groups.
Apistogramma cacatuoides are lovely and I find them very friendly little fish to have in the aquarium, not to mention beautiful. They are extremely hardy and rather easy to breed.

Most of the expedition's aces were cichlids, and lovely fish they were too; dazzling angelfish, beautiful pikes, coloured-up festives and lovely severums, Satanoperca and Apistogramma were among the highlights.
These consist of many species of Tetra's, Barb's, Danio's, Hatchetfish and, for the cichlid lover, Apistogramma's. It is not recommended to add any other bottom dwelling fish to a Zebra tank, as they do not appreciate competition for food.
