I kept them a long time ago and I never remember having any problems with them but now I have lost so many and I think it might all be from my large male bullying them and stressing them out by constantly chasing them around the tank. :(
Thanks. I will be picking up a few more plants so I can add more hiding spaces and change things around a bit.
I recently changed things around and they didn't fight for like a week and then the alpha male kept bullying the other two all the time.
I want to get more rams but now I am scared...
I had three german blue rams, 2 male 1 female.
About a week ago I noticed my female ram had a little white mark on the top of her head, near her eye.
It looked a lot like that (it was hard to get a good picture)
Then her eye started swelling pretty bad and she died within the next...
Unfortunately she died, her eye kept getting worse and the white patch on her head looked to be getting deeper, kind of similar to hole in the head? But I don't understand because my water was near perfect when I tested it. My male ram just died yesterday too, he had a small white spot on his...
Thanks. Her eye is still swollen today but the white patch is healing quickly so I hope the swelling will subside after. I am going to try some melafix.
Unfortunately I don't have a hospital tank and capturing her in my tank would probably take a couple hours. Last time I was able to catch a fish who was too aggressive for my tank it took 3 adults and over 2 hours, a lot of stress.
It is just a white mark that appears to look like a scrape of...
Right now I have two male german blue rams and one female in a planted 75 gallon tank.
One of the males went missing for a couple weeks and I had assumed he was dead but recently he came out of hiding and I noticed my female had a small white spot above her eye a couple days ago. It just...
I picked up this eel a couple weeks ago, he has been doing really well in my tank and hangs out with my pleco all the time like this. haha.
And just to make sure, that is a yellow spiny eel? I've never had one before, I guess they aren't really eels at all but I guessed that is what...
I've had firemouths and rams before and I personally favor the rams. I love german blue rams. They are so pretty and fun to watch. They have their own little personalities to them too even though they are a smaller fish.
I have german blue rams in my 75 gallon with four angels and they seem to...
He is a gold gourami I believe.
Thanks!
Surprisingly my pair of angels are better parents than my rams, although I'm sure they will get a hang of it soon.
Speaking of, they actually laid eggs last night and the male has been protecting them so well.
The female seems uninterested.
They...
