Maybe not so new, I've been watching them in my LFS for about the past month waiting for them to settle a bit before buying them, but with my employee discount it made them all worth it!

Anyway, picked up 4 Electric Blue Rams when I got off work today!! :19:
Hoping to get a pair out of them at least, 2 showed promise in the tank at the store but I'd rather have the better odds lol

Here's a couple pics of them in the bag (they're still drip acclimating)

A bit of an impulse buy, but I couldn't risk someone else buying them, I know we won't be ordering them in again untill the price lowers a bit :hmm3grin2orange:

Thanks all! They've got great personality, need to move the apistos out of the tank they're in though... the stupid apistos bred last night right after I added the ebr it seems, so they're claiming half the tank for themselves :P

I'm so happy with them! thanks! So far so good, they're eating hikari micro pellets right now, doing a small water change and netting out the apistos (had to flush the batch of eggs to prevent the bullying)

They are normally 25 bucks each Gmoney, I got all 4 of mine for 70 bucks... great deal :hmm3grin2orange:

Thanks everyone! I'm trying to post some more pics but my internet drops out halfway through uploading so we'll see if I can get them uploaded any time soon...

Sad news, lost one of them this morning :( Not sure why but I'm suspecting stress from the apistos (removed them right away), water's all good (0,0,5, ph 6.5):scry:
The others have been way more active since removing the apistos though, so hopefully that was the only reason
