I currently have a German Blue Ram in my 40 gallon breeder. I have had him for a few weeks now. When I first got him he was very colorful, but now he is very pale and washed out. He also seems to hold his top fin close to his body at all times. He is just now comfortable enough with me to come out when it is feeding time.
From what I can tell my tank is very healthy. 0 ammo, 0 nitrites, and currently fluctuating nitrates (it is a planted tank and I have had this problem for a long time now, still trying to keep under control) I know the nitrates are probably going to be the first thing people red flag, but it hasn't been a problem recently.
He is in with 2 angels, 5 von rio tetras, 7 harlequin rasboras, 3 ammano shrimp, and a very small pleco (not a common but I forget the type. stays around a few inches) And honestly next to no aggression (I spend a good part of my day around my tank)
Let me know what you think.
