I tried my hand at Blue Rams twice, and each time, they developed some sort

didn't transport well, arrived fragile, and never recouperated.... I oh so
love Rams, Blues especially, but just can't keep them happy.... I know my
water is good, tanks are healthy, but seems like they're just a delicate
breed of fish or the quality of what I got are lacking...

I've been told they are delicate and sensitive to water quality
but mine have lived through a 13 hr power cut and a compromised
filter (ammonia got up to 1ppm, nitrite to 2ppm...) and various
other issues. They seem happy enough to me. Guess I'm lucky...
