    Default Electric Blue Rams

    Here is my newest pair of Electric Blue Rams and my group in the 55 gallon tank I will pull them from as they pair off. I have another group of 10 EBR growing out that are a little behind in age.

    Those are sweet George. I love Rams almost as much as discus. I've struggled with EB though. I've finally got something going though. I decided to work on a EB x Gold cross. My first cross was with a EB male and a Gold female. I kept my favorite female from the cross and am now crossing her back to a male EB. I really love this female. Depending on the light she looks very much a gold but when she turns in the light the blue pops out and she also has some great speckling. I now have two spawns from the pair. When I get these big enough I will select out the best and decide what the next move should be. Crossing the siblings or back to the EB again. Here are a couple of pics and a vid.
