im really surprised its so hard to get these fish for some ppl, they are so popular i would think it would be in the best interest of the lfs to get them

A week later and the female still has alot of pink on her belly, how large do they have to be to breed?

German Blue Ram(GBR) Microgeophagus Remirezi

i think thats the right scientific name

That's crazy...every time I introduce new rams to my tank they get bullied to death, or terrorize the tank, like my new male is doing right now lol.

How much could I keep in a 25 gallon?
Also will it be better being a species only tank?

All my rams have been very peaceful,

and for a 25 gallon you could do a pair of them no problem. and ime they work great in a community tank
