Aquarium Advice Freak
Called "The Norwalk Aquarium" today and asked if they had any german blues in stock, he said no but they have regular blues.
So I went down there and thought he might not know what he's talking about and ended up buying one anyways. Along with another golden to replace the one I lost a few days ago.
The blue ram looks exactly like a german blue except not nearly as bright and colorful. Are they any different or has this ram not grown into his (or her) colors yet?
I'm also acclimating them MUCH more slowly than I did with the golden that I lost a few days ago. Hung the bag in the tank to get the temps to match each other, and I'm adding 1/8 cup tank water every 10 mins for two hours. My pH is a bit on the high side for these guys, 7.5-7.8. Should the 2 hour slow acclaimation help with the stress?
TIA!
