I got a German blue balloon ram two days ago and it's still rapidly breathing. Fast breathing about 2-4 times per sec. Hes in a fully cycled 65g tank with 0 ammonia 0 nitrite and 0 nitrates. He's the only fish in there until next week when my order comes in. There is a bit of detritus build up but the snails are working on it. He's eating frozen blood worms that sink to the bottom and hides most of the day in the back.
