Pic of one of my Rams

Yep, I would defin hold off for a bit. Sorry to hear about the ich...I know how aggrovating that has to be for ya.

 

ooo another ram lover!!

i have four in my tank, three females and one large male. They do love being in groups but have their lil spats. the most Ive seen from them towards themselves and the other fish in my tank is the lip locking thing they do. the Germans will chase off the Bolivians (the Bolivians are very indifferent to this..they allow themselves to be chased off ) or they will do their lip lock thing on the forehead of the Bolivian.

i have never had probs with these fish. Not sure why ppl say they are testy. I clean my tank once a week (looks like everyone on here does that), i feed them alot i think. probably to much. why i clean the tank every week. But i feed them everything. and they eat everything. i spend WAY to much on about eight different foods. frozen, live and dried foods, not to mention pellets and flakes.

i dunno if its just me but these things change color. one day they are blue the next golden and today i was checking out my male and he was a VERY bright red.
One of the females bellies has gotten a bright red too. from what Ive read i might be seeing a spawn!!

Anyway good luck with yours. lemme know how it goes! Id like to know if you see the color changes.
ohhh and do any of yours have copper colored spots anywhere on them?

 

Sorry to hear that (one that passed). I know how determined you are to keep the lil buggers. Lol!

 

Yeah, sorry for your loss. Could've been the possible ich :|

Looks like you really have succes with em Aironia! I'd like to try em once so bad They look just gorgeus <<-- spellcheck

 

aww im sorry!! keep trying though.

my tank is a 65g. ive always believed larger fish tanks are more forgiving. in little tanks i dont try anything iffy. But then im all thumbs.
