Speaking of rams



Hi all,
I recently bought three pairs of Rams with the intent of breeding them.
I picked a pair that bonded out of the three and put them in their own tank.The tanks setup:10g ,ph 7.4,TDS 120ppm,Temp.81Deg.F(I will raise the temp tonight to 85 F following Mike Jacobs earlier suggestions)
Substrate:Pool filter Sand and three flat grey pebbles.
Sponge filter
Planted driftwood
One flowerpot.
Plants:Java moss,Java fern,Anubia var.barteri,Babytears.
It took my Rams about a week and a WC before they spawned yesterday.I tried to get some decent shots of the spawning site.Unfortunately the pair choose a pebbel in the back of the tank[bastards:)]and getting clear macro shots from that distance is impossible.Anyways I post the pics today on Galleria page 3 in the M. ramirezi album.Oh yeah, before I forget the Z-man has an excellent German Ram breeding article on his website.I'll definitely read this one again today.
