Just my opinion 70 degrees is rather low for a Bolivian Ram. This could compound whatever issue he may have come to you with.

Thanks, Aqua Imports looks promising. Oddly enough Aqua Huna is nearby but will not ship within Washington State.

Behold the ctenopoma acutirostre or as identified for me here first by @gwand as the leopard bush fish. I thought I'd share some less-than-great photos and ask about online tropical fish retailers in the US. I'd like to get 2 more of these fish, my LFS hasn't been able to stock them and neither...

Clown Loaches no doubt are a hoot, yet the most personality, that probably goes to our Green Severum. Always curious as to what us humans are doing and will stare right through you. A couple of pics

Once algae gets going it really gains momentum, even when seemingly scraped off. Depending on your lights/hood/cover situation, reducing the amount of light, in addition to the duration, can help. I place plastic cards on the glass panel above the water (under the lights) to diffuse/reduce the...

Saying something about it to the hospital staff might be helpful. Whatever company that maintains it (and whoever hired them) should know.

You could also try weights such as in the link below. I have some angelfish that like to tug on plants sometimes and though they sometimes strip the leaves, they haven't uprooted anything. https://buceplant.com/products/lead-plant-weights And we've covered this in other threads but these...

Even angelfish breeders are often confused -until they pair off.
