Yap, I do mean that, Apisto seeing other around all the time is NO GOOD for reproduction, coloring......... Most Apisto keeping in individual/Isolate tank is more colorful than 混養缸Don't take aqua shop's as your model coz the design propose is difference...........
I have no experience to keep 龍紋, but from books & other Apisto fans all saying not smaller than 30" & better in 36", & I don't think 8-9" water depth is deep enough ..... water volume, depth & tank size are all major factor to drive yr fish growth size........
Other Apisto tanks' long side got 14" or more is good enough....... short side shouldn't less than 8"......... I kept my A. Beta "tafe" in 10"x16" tanks, they all grow to SL 3.5"+
thanks alot!
for the working area, what's the height will be good?
this rack is for breeding only. once they grow, I will put all of them into my other 4' tank. the big tank size is 48" length x 18" width x 20" height. Do I still need a higher and longer tank of 36" for 龍紋 baby fish?
can you show me your rack's picture?

or your picture, haha
