Re: Aspidoras ID

Aspidoras ID

I just recently brought in some aspidoras which were supposed to be aspidoras pauciradiatus, but were not. Now I am trying to figure out what they actually are. They have been in the tank now for 10-15 minutes and are settling in fine and their colors are starting to darken. The only thing that is ...

My axelrodi sit in a 10 gal tank with floating spawning mops and a sponge filter. They spawn regularily without any ...

No special care was given to them and now that they have started they seem to spawn every few weeks for me. I think i am currently raising out 3 or 4 spawns of fry from them. They are egg eaters ...
