Hi Everyone,
For several years I've kept various New World chiclids. After a period of transistion when I didn't have any tanks, I now have a 55 planted tank set up with 3 cory catfish and 2 blue rams and a mystery fish I'm hoping someone here has heard of. To me it looks like a gold ram but my lfs insists it is something called a "ramgel." I had the fish guy dip it out because he made me a deal on a trio then discovered he didn't have a trio of blue rams. So, I got this fish thinking it's a gold ram then was informed by the fs owner that "It's not a ram. It's a
*ramgel*"as I was paying. I have spent the weekend observing the "ramgel's" behavior. He schools with the female blue rams and seems to court them. If he's not a ram, he's not bothered by a few minor differences in coloration and labeling :-)
Of course my lfs is not open today and on the weekends they are manic so I intend to go in tomorrow evening after work. My weekend googling revealed nothing. The only difference I can notice between this fish and a typical ram is maybe a slightly deeper body. Any help would be very appreciated.
