Aren't rams Cichlids?

With two young children not naming the fish is out of the question. RTBS------Bullit after the Steve Mcqueen movie Juli Cory Cat-----Vitor Meira race car driver. Albino Cory Cat----Teo Fabi race car driver. Zebra Danios----Warrick & Grissom after characters from the original CSI. Lemon...

Very nice. I've been playing some 25 years or so and gigging for about 15. I have a '65 Hagstrom I, a mid 80's strat copy ( Memphis), a mid 80's Ibanez copy ( Rockster), a super cheapo classical and a Takamine G series acoustic. I started playing bass as well about 5-6 years ago and currently...

I was referring to the shark, not the rams. Just the site in general.

My understanding of the redtail black shark is...he's not a shark at all. The Rams are cool but wouldn't their lovely flowing fins look tasty to the redtail and the danios?

Hey everybody, I'm a green aquarist. I'm just a little over a month into creating my own submersible universe. After hitting the ground running with a 2 gallon hexagonal filterless aquarium, I've graduated to a 30 gallon freshwater rectangular tank with a Bio-fiber filter. Additional tank stats...
