Apistogramma Elizabethea RARE!Origin : Apistogramma Elizabethea: Named for Mrs. Elizabeth Cabot Cary Agassiz (1822 1907), second wife of J. L. R.

The perfect solution for having a part of your tank bare bottom so your shrimp/fish food doesn't disappear in your aqua soil causing an ammonia spike

by differences in colour pattern and by higher number of scale rows on cheeks

The species is currently considered widespread throughout much of the upper Amazon basin from the ríos Ucayali and Amazonas in Peru to the Solimões in western Brazil

it will float on water surface as per photo shown

They all vary in size shape and look

Daphnia and Blackworms should be offered regularly although most specimens will also learn to accept dried alternatives with pelleted products generally preferred to flake

vegetarian food should therefore be a regular feature on the menu of all shrimp and crabs

These fish came in as wild caught fish under the name "Puerto Carreno Vichada" knowing this is not a described (real) Apistogramma name we asked for help from international ''Apisto Guru'' Frank Hattich
