Hmmm...I dont think theres much in Sydney...most appear to be in Melbourne or Brisbane.
Theres NO baenschi to be had for love or money at the moment. I had three pairs (5 feamles) breeding like goats in Perth but left them all there....thinking I could easily replace them when I got here but theres none here at all. I had great success using trios and two tanks...Id cycle the male through the two tanks with one female in each two footer....they seemed to do better when I removed the male after they spawned (actually reduced damage to the male by the female)

I had a couple of baenschi spawns using a pair in a 1ft cube. Never had much problem with after spawn aggression from the female.
The male always kept himself busy trying to bash up a big apple snail so I guess she just let him be

Re Baenschi Mike, we can always go ask if bondi will bring some in for us, will take a while cos the african shipment has to arrive first. I would love to get a least 5-6 pieces.

Hey Mike,
Just wait a few months(till I get mine and spawn them) and I'll send some down for you to share with Grant!
Regards....Rod
ps congrats on the New Son!!
Perhaps we should get organised and all breed/maintain a different specie and then swap them around???

That sounds like a great idea...in Perth I kept a minimum of two pairs (preferable three) so that I could sell people ONLY unrelated fish.

fishchick is in Brisbane, right? Does she ship to Sydney?
How can I find her email, as if she ships to Sydney, I'd be interested. Mike, we could possibly share shipping costs?Previously known as "Tankwatcher"

apistos
I think Jodi has the following for sale
Hoignei Venezuela
Cacautoides Super Red
Borellii Blue/Yellow
Eunotus
Trifasciatus
Biataeniata - yellow (wild caught)
Apisto fresa - (wild caught)
Apisto Inka - (wild caught)
Apisto jurensis - (wild caught)
Apisto Viejita II XL - (tank bred Thailand) - these are big fish
And if you ask her really nicely she might bring in some A.iniridae wild caught from Columbia in her next shipment.
