Scientific Name:Apistogramma agassizii
Family:Cichlidae
Origin: Tank raised, species originally from the Amazon River
This ‘Double Red’ variant of Apistogramma has been line bred to increase red coloration in the fins. The body is light tan with a thick black horizontal stripe running along the side, and the large dorsal fin runs the length of the body. The tail is somewhat spade shaped.
They will prefer a planted tank with plenty of swimming space but also with areas to hide in. They should be kept on a fine substrate. Males are territorial and should not be kept with other males, but they can be housed in a pair. They should be kept only with similar sized fish also of a similar temperament.
Carnivores by nature, they should be given plenty of meaty foods and offered a varied diet. Live, frozen or freeze dried bloodworms or tubifex are ideal, as well as high quality flake, pellet food and other live or frozen foods.
