Thanks to Coralbandit, I (believe) I have a pair of BRs. Sent me 3 for Christmas giveaway, believe 2 female one male. My lone female took to the assumed male that shipped and are making craters in substrate, dancing, flaring. Haven't seen colors like this from her before. Tom is such a great guy!
Bought 2 pair of Rams off eBay after wanting rams for years and never having luck with the ones at local fish stores. Quite happy with the quality and personality. Guy said he is selling them because it's his hobby not his source of income.
But this pair, well..
They surprised me:
Hey that rock looks different:
coralbandit , is this a new record? Amazing fish, I didn't think they would acclimate this fast.
I think of the two pair (one BEX, one EBGBR) this is the darker, is he the same lineage as the one above? The females show a darker side but this guy is so electric . Think he'll darken up with age or get bluer? The other pairs male is so bright I would almost call him powder blue/lavender so I'm pretty sure I don't have them mixed up.
Nice! Mine are at it again too, looks like last night so maybe we'll get some Christmas wigglers.
Mom in the background like no sleeping on duty, or else...
It's crazy how different these guys look in full shade, he's almost powder blue in the light today.
Well, I didn't get any wigglers out of that last run. They have it rough on these tanks anyhow, that ones an endler frat, and full of ramshorns. No rush on breeding rams though, I can tell if I give it back real go I'm going to need better fry tubs/tanks.
Today while I was changing water I moved the established pair into a different tank where the bex pair had tried to kill eachother for a week. I fattened up the female and re-united the bex pair in the lucky tank, so far they aren't shredding eachother or fighting over food.
Oh my goodness!!! My 2 GBR girls from Coralbandit arrived todayyyyy!!! I’m so over the moon in love! My boys put on their flashiest colors for the girls! 1st pic just the baby girls. 2nd pic flashy boys. 3rd pic size comparison between my boys and the new girls ☺️
I haven't featured much of this guy since he needs certain light to really shine.
His female laid eggs.. again.. I thought there was supposed to be 20-25 days between but maybe I misread?
