Ash Lipped Apisto

Special requirements

• Sand Substrate

  A fine, sandy substrate is absolutely vital for good health, allowing them to perform their natural sand-sifting behaviors.

• Mature Aquarium

  Highly sensitive to fluctuating organic wastes and should never be introduced to a biologically immature aquarium.

• Leaf Litter & Caves

  Requires structured décor with caves, roots, and dried leaf litter to provide security, spawning sites, and beneficial tannins mimicking their native blackwater pools.
