RE: German Blue Rams/ Wild Caught... now wild variations

[David Sanchez <barbax2@yahoo.com>]

I just picked up some of the "yellow" looking rams I
had the picture of. A friend asked me if I wanted his
wild rams because they never seemed to get  happy.
Well after a week they have fattned up and I clearly
see they are the "yellow" looking rams I spoke of. So
from this I have to suspect they are not so uncommon
your advice is good we should look at wild rams more
closely. My friend is happy he did because he now has
a group of wild rams he just needed to up the temp a
bit for them, I convinced him to keep them and just
change a few things to make them happier. well wow
they look nice indeed.
