ram

I have just had a reshuffle and have purchased 2 beautiful Blue Rams from my LFS. The temp in the tank is at a constant 28 degrees C and I have properly acclimatised them. It is planted as well as a piece of driftwood to give them plenty of hiding sports. They are happily swimming around but was...

Hello fellow fish lovers. I'm just confused. Is this a Bolivian Ram?  

So my 240L tank is almost cycled, and soon I will be stocking it with fish. I really want a breeding pair or two of bolivian rams, but im not sure how to achieve this because it's almost impossible to differentiate between male and female. So when i go to the store, should I randomly pick out 6...

I have a 26 gallon planted tank with 5 serpae tetras and a bolivian ram Im thinking of maybe adding a school of cory catfish but im wondering what else might go good with the fish i currently have?

So I have been looking for a pair of Bolivian Rams for the past week. Visited my biggest LFS today and they didnt have any but they had some (what was labelled) 'Rams'  Upon asking advice if they had similar requirements as a BR they said they would be fine. (worried about the PH difference as...

I bought 2 ballon rams a few days ago and one died today and one yesterday i know for sure it's because there genetically enhanced to have the bigger body which messes there swim gland up because they just kept floating to the bottom! I have a lot of other fish in the tank which have been fine...

This is my new blue ram, Lemonhead, he decided to show off for the camera.  So curious!

Hey everyone. I recently moved and am starting to set up my tanks again. Right now, I have a 55g tank set up, PH 6.8, Temp at 75 fahrenheit, and I have a few questions. I know that adult severums shouldn't be kept in a 55g. I just purchased a group of 8 juveniles, all under quarter size, and...

Will bog wood drop my ph I have just got 2 peices of it as I am getting electric blue rams and want my ph in the low 6's. my ph was 7.6 before I put them in when should I check if it has dropped or will it drop at all?

Hi I've just bought 2 bolivian rams at the weekend. I have tried to get one male and one female but as I'm sure some of you know, it's not all that easy. Here is a pic. The best pic I've managed to get tonight that shows them reasonably close and you can see their vents. I will try for more...

  I have four (what I THOUGHT were male) ram cichlids in a tank, along with a neon tetra and a plecostomus. There's nothing else in the tank except snails (and I KNOW what snail eggs look like). I just saw today that the back of my small piece of driftwood is covered in eggs! I thought ram...

Hiii. Recently I purchased a pair of German Blue Rams, a female and a male. My female has stopped eating since a few days ago and I'm not sure what to do. She just sits on one of my plants leaves. I know that she's tempted because she goes after it but then stops when it gets away from her leaf...

My female of my established pair of GBRs has changed moods drastically. Use to follow the male around and chase other fish, now just sits still at the bottom of my tank and hardly moves. She won't take food, either. Frozen brine, bloodworms, freeze dried bloodworms, flakes, algae pellets, etc...

This was the first ram I purchased from my LFS. They told me it was most likely a female. After purchasing two more females and a male(or what I thought was a male), this 'female' changed completely. Colors in the face and fins turned orange, etc. Does it look like a male? The dorsal fin...

I have a 55g tank stocked with tinfoil barbs, tiger barbs, german blue rams, zebra danios, dwarf gouramis and a pleco. So far I've only been feeding them flake and pellet foods, and I'm looking to feed my fish a more well-rounded diet. Any suggestions on foods I could feed these fish...
