My female Ram died this morning.
After I had taken the eggs she and the male had layed, out from the tank, the male wouldn't stop chasing her. I eventually took the male out and switched him with the other male I had in a seperate tank. The new male seemed to get along with her for a little while- at one point I even thought they were going to spawn- but something changed and he started attacking her also. I went and bought another female and a Gold Ram female- hoping to take the 'focus' off of the mom...but to no avail...yesterday she seemed to be huffin and puffin a lot- and I noticed some damage...I was affraid that I would wake up to find her dead and that is exactly what happened. I am so bummed out...
Her babies are at 2 1/2 weeks now- I hope they make it...
