cool thanks. how come its so much smaller and has a different head shape to my other ram?

Agreed. The first ram is a blue ram and the second is a bolivian ram and believe it or not.. the two species are not even related.

lol thanks guys
the first one is very quiet keeps itself to itself, and explodes into colour when it hangs around the plants in the tank, it dont seem to feed much but as you can see (the pic was taken today) seems in good health

Really??? Wow, they look so similar, just size and color differences. I have a pair of each and they are so cool to watch.
