Folks....I will make this shorter than the last message I wrote.  Since I have
been on this list, 4 years, maybe more,  I think the single most asked question
on the list is "how can I make my rams not eat their babies"........I attempted
to give an answer that would help some of you with an alternate method, because
a bunch of you seem to be havng trouble......Mr Sanchez says I am nuts (my
words).  He says that it is easy...put them in a 5 gallon and leave the
temperature a 78 degrees.......good luck folks....that's been your problem for
the last bunch of years.

....I tried to offer an alternate solution to your problems.....sorry to have
bothered the list.......I will go into hibernation for another 2-3 years and
acquiesce to better breeders than I.

Hi all,
well, here I go the rookie apisto guy speaks up. I'm not going to tell anyone how the best way to breed blue rams because I don't know.
I am going to say that as one who enjoys this list and the things I've learned that no one should go into hiding when they think they can give some help on a subject. I'm nuts too! Actually I think everybody is nuts in their own way...it's not such a bad thing. It's called enjoying life. Part of our lifes enjoyment  are these fish.
I started a website. There is not much content on it right now but, the main goal is to help newbies like myself. Point people in a direction to go and find the information.
One of the things I say in my intro. is to check out the apisto list. I caution people though to look at it in a way similar to getting advice from a doctor. Although the doctors might have gotten the same high cost education they still don't always have the same answer to the same question. That doesn't mean they don't know what they are doing it just means their approach is different. If you've already try the one doctors advice then try the others...etc...I guess you get my point. Keep on talking and offering what ever help you can some of us really do need to hear it.
