Re: Blue Rams Fry`s death ??????

["Scott Olson" <olson7@hotmail.com>]

Yeah, food was the first thing that came to my mind.

It could also be:

Water temperature

The nature of the water added to the tank at water-change time might be a 
problem (chlorine, chloramine, hardness, ph, etc.)

Disease/parasites (already mentioned)

There are probably other things I haven't thought of.
