Scientific name: Apistogramma Agassizii Fire Gold

Origin :The lectotype originates from Lake Manacapurú in Amazonas state, northwestern Brazil, just upstream from the city of Manaus and fed by the main Amazon river channel. The remainder of the type series was collected variously from the municipality of Codajás (Amazonas state), Curupira, near Barcelos municipality (Amazonas), Lake Maximo near Parintins city (Amazonas) and the rio Poti, a tributary of the rio Parnaíba (Piauí state).

It’s currently-accepted to range throughout much of the Amazon/Solimões basin from its upper section in the Río Ucayali, Peru and into Brazil with the Capim River, a tributary of the rio Guamá which flows into the rio Pará at the city of Belém in the Amazon delta region, representing its eastern limit. Body colouration and patterning can vary considerably with locality.

The Fire Gold strain however is a aquarium bred strain and is not found in the wild.

Difficulty in keeping: Intermediate

Maximum size: 7-9cm Males 5-6 cm Females

Selling size: 3-4 cm and above

Temperature: 22 – 29 °C  (25°C preferred)

pH: 6-7.8 Our fish are bred and grown at a ph between 6.5 and 7.5

Diet: Primarily carnivorous and apparently feeds mostly on benthic invertebrates in nature. In the aquarium live and frozen foods such as Brine shrimp, Daphnia and Blackworms should be offered regularly although most specimens will also learn to accept dried alternatives with pelleted products generally preferred to flake.

Fantastic

The fish I got were healthy, active and beautiful. Their breeding and rearing has obviously been top notch. Thank you Blackwater! A lot better than some suppliers I've used in the past - and will never use again.
