Apistogramma Eunotus

[fluvial]

Hi there -
I have purchased a group of 5 young Eunotus and at the moment am
feeding them up in their own small tank.

When large enough i plan to place them in the community tank to form a
small breeding group. I believe I have one dominant male, 3 females, and
the 5th I think is a subordinate male (?)

Has anyone any experience of breeding these Apisto's, and is it possible
to keep them as a harem of 1 male and several females, each with its own territory ??

Any advice / experience appreciated

I think, as with most Apistos IME, if you have two males, you and more then two females, you will get 2 pairs and spare females, rehome the subdominant male, then you should have a nice harem of 1.3, perfect ratio IMO
