Air bubbles and RAM, Turn on factor? - Aquarium Advice

rohitp78 · 08-10-2006, 01:41 PM

I have a male RAM who likes air bulbbles coming out of air pump diffuser very much. As soon as i start the pump, he tries to defend the bubbles. Any fish coming near it get a nip.

Yesterday after started the bubbles, he was excited and starting digging for home in sand, just next to the long air bubble diffuser. Does anyone else has experienced this?

I lost my female, few days back and am still waiting for my LFS to get it.

Its so much fun to watch him behave this way!

i know my columbian tetras loved the airator, actually most of my fish do at first, but i guess got tired of it after awhile

bubbles = eggs (in the rammy mind) - now if only they'd stay stuck to the surface of the diffuser! darn!
