Thanks! And since they are young and now in a good environment, they will become even more colorful.

I wonder how these two different types of rams could've been mixed up? Haha! Of course it would happen at my lfs

An expensive mix up electrics are usually 3x the price of Germans.

That's great! Do you know if my electric blue ram is a male or female?

I already enjoy them! I think I'm going to get another Electric Blue Ram and German Blue Ram. Depending on what sexes my Rams are, I'll get the opposite on my next fish shopping trip.

The good thing is that I got these Rams for $10 each. I saved like $20-$30 on that Blue Ram.
