I have absolutely fallen for Scarlet Badis. Great wee fish. I had a single male in my 60p and was desperately trying to source some females. I tried a reputable apistogramma breeder on the off chance, and he thought he might have some. So I paid for three to get posted up to Scotland. They arrived and things were looking promising but over 48 hours they all coloured up and were clearly males. I don't blame the breeder as they were very young and apparently non-dominant.
Fast forward four to five weeks and I appear to have war on my hands. I spotted the reddest of the four cuddling up to the palest. I thought my luck might be in, but I am pretty sure that they are using aggressive wrestling techniques to try and put an end to one another.
Do these guys need separated and pronto? I've uploaded a low quality phone video of the action and would be grateful of any feedback. Apologies for the quality. To get straight to the the action, skip to around 40 seconds in.
Thanks
