Unusual Find?

[wackystarfish]

I was in my LFS yesterday and they had a load of rams in. They were 1.25 each and were quite small. They were really pretty and not like any rams i have ever seen before. They were completley yellow but still had the basic ram shape. They had them labled as gold rams, but the ones on the internet dont look anything like these. How would they do in a 32 gal fully established community tank with a small angel and a handfull of ditherfish? I have had the tank 2 years. Also if i can, how many should i get?
Thanks, Finlay

Gold rams aren't that unusual check out this site Microgeophagus Ramirezi

If they are diff from the standard then a photo would be good to correctly identify them

Aaah but they dont look like that. They are completley, solid yellow, no spots Just yellow!

I dont have a pic because they are still in the shop. I might sneak in and get one today though

Only the blue rams have a dot in the middle the yellow don't.
