As usual, I succumbed to the beauty of yet another fish. This time round, it is an Apistogramma Cacatuoides ‘Super Red’. Not just another triple red with intense colored fins, this fellow is a quadruple with both the pelvic fins showing red and black markings.
Plus there was also an equally nice looking quadruple female lurking in the same tank.
These fancy colored cacas are from selective breeding. Wild cacas do not possessed such intense color.
Cacas are great entry level apistogramma as they are hardy and least expensive. Also they have great finnage and color. Soft water with typical PH of 5 to 6, temperature around 28 degree celcius would make a comfortable setting for these South Americian dwarf cichlids.
