I got a male German blue ram today since I lost Marley from that disease of some sorts that was going through my tank. I've ridden the tank of that now as far as I can tell and everything has been stable. Anyway my son called him "Tree" he's a random child Dora my female GBR and him are getting along very well so I'm pleased about that trying to find a pair the first time round wasn't so easy but this time recognising a male was a lot easier(well i think it's a boy haha) Here's some pics of them attached...

Do you agree that the newest GBR is a male ?

I think you may have two females but I could be wrong.

Whats your stock in that tank.

Oh well that's ok I can deal with that since they are getting along. Time will tell there's no sign of a pink belly yet but Dora has one all the time and she's a lot smaller than the new one. The new one follows Dora around everywhere they are always together no nipping or rough housing whatsoever

I have my stock listed on my profile page it's pretty heavily stocked but working well no aggression and plenty of separate areas and hiding places. The waters params are always perfect too since I changed to the eheim 350 classic canister. My nitrates stay at 0 aswell thanks to the plants which is perfect for my little rams

Just moved some plants, rocks and driftwood around to make more hidey holes and separate territory's . I will post updated pics up when the water clears

Thanks the scratches still drive me bits but other than that I'm happy with it for now anyway. I want another upgrade already haha

I moved some plants around a little again and added some hygrophila(not sure what species exactly yet) to the background. It's still cloudy in these pics from me stirring everything up

Thanks yes it's so addicting you think this will be it for quite some time! But nope always wanting more and seeing something better. I think that's a valid excuse for the bigger tank haha we woman do have persuasive powers when we really want something though haha!

Wow! Beautiful tank. It is much like the one I am building in my head. I am new to the hobby and it will be a little while before I can build my big natural tank, but your aquascape is very close to what I am wanting to do.
