      ROB M Thank you! And you could as long as the tank is big enough. A fully grown male midas will likely try to take over any tank 125g and smaller though.

      Well I plan on getting him as a juvenile just like the rest of them in my 150 gallon for now. Hopefully it workout

    info is off they can mix with loads

    • @ASAPpetinfo
      @ASAPpetinfo  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Some times you can mix them with the right set up, however the average aquarist who probably has a tank of only 75g-125g should not try to get too confidant about mixing them with many other fish when the Midas I fully grown. The best bets would be plecos, other armored catfish species, large fast schooling fish like tin foil barbs and silvers dollars and in a tank of 125g or larger you can do a pair or possibly one individual with one or two other mid sized CA cichlid species.

      Gaz gone native the people I know who have big Amphilophus communities are very knowledgeable and have been keeping for probably almost as long as I’ve been alive. Buddy Holland has a big Amphilophus community that does great, but you can’t just throw any random set of fish in a tank and assume they will do fine. He only keeps males in his tank because egg laying females would cause havoc in the tank. There are Midas that come from Laguna de Apoyo, however majority of the ones in the hobby are from other lakes and rivers in Nicaragua. Flaveolus and chancho are only from Apoyo though. This is a general care video for anyone who is in consideration of getting this species. And anyone who can successfully keep an Amphilophus community is already very knowledgeable and doesn’t need a care video at that point. For someone who’s just thinking of getting into this species I doubt anyone has any idea what it would take to make a Amphilophus colony. It would take a massive tank, a lot of sight barriers, extremely heavy filtration and a very punctual water change schedule. All stuff that people who would be looking for a care video likely are not capable of, hence why I keep the video to the standards and guided recommendations on how to keep this species with the best interest considered for the fish.

    • @ASAPpetinfo
      @ASAPpetinfo  8 ปีที่แล้ว

      If it was labeled as a Red devil or a midas in a normal fish/pet store of some kind that would make it a midevil. If the full liege of the fish can not be tracked it must automatically be considered a midevil. Thanks for watching!
