What Rams Should I Get?

[Livewire88]

Your choice at the end of the day but in my oppinion some Bolivian Rams look better than the Electric Blue Rams, you just have to find them.

I would have prefered Bolivian Rams but the only ones I could find at the time were a bit dull in colour, therefore I went for the Electric Blues

Yea in that case try somewhere else, you don't need that. Are you in South Wales?

If so, I can highly recommend The Big Blue in Caerphilly. The manager there is a fantastic expert on SA dwarf cichlids and will happily help you out.

Yea I'm in merthyr tydfil, and the big blue is where I got my fluval 125 from. Was going to phone them tomorow to ask them actualy as when I got my tank he couldn't do enough to help great guy, can only go there sundays tho, so will pop there then to see if he got any bolivian rams

It looks like a gold ram to me, the same species as german/blue rams just a different colour. It's the red ring round the eye that gives it away. Bolivian rams' eyes aren't red.

Definitely not Bolivian. As such it will require a slightly higher temp but you'll have to weigh up the temp needs of the rasboras and corys as well.

It's a low quality standard Blue Ram, severely malnourished and you should add an antibacterial medication to stop the damaged tail from becoming infected and to treat the fungal/bacterial infection already present on part of it.
