My female came out this morning just before scheduled maintenance.
The only one I have experience with happens to be the best!
A. labiatum, of course.
A. labiatum, of course.
In the past I have kept A amarillo (left), A flaveolus (middle). and A trimculatus (right), and of course the standard pink midevel types.
My latest , a formerly Amphilophus, but now give its own separate genus status Isthmoheros, is tuyrensus.
When I first caught tem in eastern rivers of Panama, they were only less then a couple inches.
But now, after about 6 months of regular meals, they are approaching 6 inches.
I use a cast net most of the time (not thay I am very adept at it), and transfer with a dip net.
