    electric blue rams are so weird? :eek: I've seen them on the web, are they genetical encodings?
    I have 3 lfs but none of them has gbr, where are you located? how much they are asking for?

    try out this and see if it's what your looking for, they're shiped out of california so your shipping might be cheaper. if i come accross anymore i'll post them for you. hope this helps.

    yes I did asked them if they are going to have new batch,in answer they said maybe next week, now its about a month Im checking the store every sunday or saturday ,
    im still waitting for new batch :confused:
    I used to have 100s of Blue Rams in India ( I studied there 4 years for my bachelor's degree in computer Science)
    you wont believe this, rams are only 50 cent over there.
    but now having a couple of ram it's become a dream for me :D

    if you've got some family/friends that are into fish also and would like to get more, this site has some really good prices on their fish and no shipping... now the catch...has a $200 min order.

    I have ordered from TFD before and I did not have to spend $200. Call them and see what they say. They prefer doing business over the phone rather than email.

    I know what the difference is - I got my fish from them off Aquabid.com, so they can't enforce a minimum order if you bid on one fish. Try it that way.

    I got a $4.00 puffer that is totally healthy and adorable, and that was all I ordered - it was about 3 weeks ago, but I went through Aquabid. I still had to call them, but they said nothing about it, other than, "What else can I get 'cha?" I told them that was all I needed, and they shipped me my $4 fish.
