Lookjing for female german blue rams

[Texasmom6]

T&T got a dozen blue rams in, and I'm pretty darn sure they were all males! And gorgeous, too! I bought some, but am now looking for more some nice females. If anyone has any, or knows where I can find some, please let me know!

I'd like to get two pairs in my tank.

ETA - Sorry about the misspelling in the title. :)

Houston aquatics on shepherd has some in right now

[Texasmom6]

Thanks! That's pretty far from me, but if I don't find any closer, I'll check there tomorrow!

You can get blue rams from petsmart. find the ones with pink bellys.
your rams are very pretty.

Well, I stopped at Fish Gallery on my way back from Kingwood, and they had about 20 beautiful GBRs - all male, too! They weren't quite as large as the ones from T&T, but still a very nice size.

Thought I'd mention that Fishland on Wertheimer had a tankful of the balloon rams last week. Although I'm not a big fan, they were very nice and colorful. I didn't look long enough to determine the sex.

I just bought a GBR from FG, when I put him in my tank he just went to hide in the plants, it's been about 3 hours in the same spot, is this common for them to do this? He is the only fish in the tank right now.

[Texasmom6]

Yes, it's very common. It might take him a few days to settle in. What else are you putting in the tank?

[Qs Evolution]

Some white clouds, and another type of schooling fish. I'm just adding them little at a time. should I get a female ram? Or 2 males? I heard keeping a male and a female will make them more colorful? Is that true?

[Qs Evolution]

This is my 20 long I'm keeping him in right now..

[Texasmom6]

That's a much nicer setup than what I have. Very nice. Yeah, I would keep him with a female, if possible. If your water conditions are not perfect, the eggs will never make it to "fry," but you'll still get to see some interesting behaviors.

Your tank is nicer than mine because I don't have real plants in my tank. I'm planning on growing some plants in a 10 gallon that I have for future use in a larger tank. My goal is two 40G (breeder size) to keep south american cichlids. I'm short, so I will have a much easier time cleaning and tending a "shorter" tank without dripping water everywhere. :)

Lol I know what you mean, well. I'll see how this guy does and then I'll try to find him a female.

I have a 40breeder set up for sale man.
