    They were both available a few months back. Right now all the usual cichlid people only have tank-raised in stock. But I will keep my eye out.

    Josie, do you know that his rams are wild?? I thought they were domestic. I know he also has electric blues that we know are domestic.

    I thought so also Pat, but the ones he has listed right now say "blue rams". Doesn't say wild or wc but it also doesn't say German blue rams which would be the domestic of blue rams.

    I'm pretty sure the ones he has in stock right now are farm raised. He lists them as wild caught when they are. He almost always has farm raised Blues, electric blues, and sometimes golds in stock.

    The wilds come and go. They're seasonal like wild discus. John has access to farm-raised rams so he has them almost all year. Sometimes they are on the list at the same time as wilds, so usually they either say Wild next to them or he lists a collection point/country.
