I've been waiting to get Rams from this place that "said" they were locally bred when I emailed them. Today when I finally drove quite a ways to get them they said they get them from Houston but they don't know where they get them from. Hmmm...well, I guess I'll just hope that they are not Asian bred.
They were in a 10g tank with WAY too many fish and I was in a hurry when I went in to buy them and didn't have my glasses so I did the best I could picking out healthy looking ones. Unfortunately they have kinda frayed tails and I can't tell if its rot or just from nipping.
Also, I'm not sure what sex they are. I couldn't find one that had a rosy belly and couldn't remember any other traits to look for. I ended up with one pretty big one and one that was smaller. I guess none of that helps with out a picture. I should have some to post in a bit and maybe someone can tell me what I got.
Anyway, they sure have gotten comfortable in their new home quickly. They were hiding at first but now they are coming out and swimming all around the tank exploring. They are very responsive. They come right up to the glass right next to my face and look right at me. I can see why some many people like having cichlids!! They are beautiful and have great personalities. I really hope they do well cuz I love 'em already!!:1luvu:
