Well today, after having had stable water conditions following my cycle I decided that I would go out and purchase the two Bolivian Rams that I promised myself over a month ago. My LFS stock was low...down to only 3 (were 9 this time last week), but I managed to watch these guys for a while and they all seemed very chilled out. Sexing them was practically impossible and as I am not fussed about breeding (although it would be nice if they did!) I selected the two that seemed to hang out together the most.
After 3 hours aclimatising I let these little chaps into the tank and although timid have began claiming a spot under a resin root decoration. They seem very happy with each others company so they may be M:F however I think it is more likely that they are M:M. They are still a little camera shy (and the guppies that are their tankmates are not!) which make photography v. difficult. That and the fact I only have the phone on my camera to work with but below is a shot of these two! Am so pleased with them. Just need to think of a couple of names now
