RE: [GSAS-Member] HELP! My Blue Rams have hatched!

["Scott Frayo" <ronscottf@hotmail.com>]

CONGRATS on the Blue Rams!!!  Feed BBS as soon as they are old enough.  Your 
biggest worry though will be the SAE's and corys wanting to snack on them.  
The parents will guard them and try to protect, but they are no match for an 
adult hungry SAE.  The corys might be okay if they have a clutch of their 
own to guard.  How big is the tank?
