View Full Version : Bolivian rams - a great addition

I could never keep the blue rams (Elaine said the same) and suggested
the Bolivians many months ago.
Finally saw some at my LFS (under red ram name). Bigger than german
blues (2 1/2") but just as beautiful and just as friendly. Two
keyholes and even my yellow lab are being neighborly. My brat gold
ram is bossy but slowly adjusting.
Great addition to my community tank. Life is good!!
All the best,
Larry

At the local fish club aquarium show there were some blue rams close to
4 inches SL (without tail) in full breeding color, breath-taking. Never
before saw one that big, the beautiful couple were in a 10 usg tank and
made it look crowded.

So glad to hear you love them as much as I did. I found the colors more
subtle than blue rams but as you say, equally beautiful. I particularly
like the red highlights in the fins.
