Here are some pics of the fish. Tell me what you think!!




What kind of rams are those? I've been thinking of setting up a fw tank maybe tanks for some rams, maybe neon tetras, and maybe chichlids, but this is going to be after my reef and my other sw nano tank.

They are German Blue Rams.

I read an article about rams, which closely ressemble yours, in this months issue of Tropical Fish Hobbyist. Very cool fish, and nice colors on them too.

Thanks! They were $5.99 each.
Very nice price. As soon as I upgrade tanks for my reef once I get some corals and they start outgrowing the tank, I want to make my older tanks fw. Fresh sounds like it can be cool and very cheap.

I love it, an angel in a 25 os cutting it short though. I have a piece of driftwood lying around that would be sorta cool to use and you could get some java moss or something growing on it. I'll give it to ya free if you want it, but I mean if you don't it won't hurt my feelings
