SerLunchbox · 01-22-2005, 04:04 PM

Went shopping again and something followed me homw. It was 4 long finned blue rams and an anubias nan. I don't know how that happened ... Now i really wish i had some sort of [acronym:b931e5a827="quarantine or quart depending on context"]QT[/acronym:b931e5a827] tank ... but i really trust this place for fish!

Too funny, I almost did the same thing on a business trip this week. I saw the most brilliant juvenal blue rams and gold rams that I have ever seen.

Made me long for my 30 [acronym:ce7010e0c5="Gallon"]gal[/acronym:ce7010e0c5] tank that I gave away to my sister in law, who is a teacher, for a class room display several years ago. They would look great in a planted tank.

Good luck with the new additions,

Pisces, right? I was in there yesterday, and those rams were looking pretty nice. I bought a trio of dalmation sailfin mollies to bolster my breeding lines....$18, but worth it as they are rarely available.

Rams are my fish nemesis. Have never been able to keep them for much more than 1-2 months, and at the price they usually cost in the stores...
