Breeding Report: Aphyosemion elberti elbertiLocation code: Diang
Water conditions: Moderately soft and acidic, 16-19oC
Spawning Method: Spawning Mops
Breeding problems: Poor egg production
Sex ratio: Roughly equal
Breeding difficulty: Difficult
Success: Fairly successful
Other Comments: The various populations of elberti vary in their ease of keeping. Diang seems to like stability - it can breed at 18 or at 23, but it doesn't seem to do well when the temperature moves a lot. It also likes subdued lighting, and tends to eat eggs it can find (check mops often).
