Nice!!!
Big shout to Tom. Wanted really special Black Rams, luckily I ran into Tom in one of his posts. I recently bought “pitch black rams” he listed for sale on aquabid.
Received the shipment on July 2nd.
They already bred and are currently raising fry for me �� very happy with the quality, they are indeed pitch black.
Here are some pictures -

Well done and thanks for the shout out !
Love seeing others do well with fish .

They're great, aren't they. I got a huge spawn from my pair this past time.

Such a cool thing to see. Those guys are spectacularly black! Good for you Sanjay
They're beautiful!!
Thank you Frank and Pat
Hopefully they pull through, Bbs died just before the first feeding, added a little vinegar eels in there and some crushed food for first feeding. This morning(day 2) I added a lot of bbs.
Oh yes ! they are beautiful How are they doing for you Liz ? what did you feed for first feeding ?
They sure are Dan ! I got lucky to see his post on these for sale. Noticed he sells them a few times only.
Thank you Amanda
I started them on BBS then started adding golden pearls and a food made by a smaller maker of fish food here in the States. He has sizes from smaller than BBS size to large enough to feed adult Discus. All my fish went for his food first time I tried it and have done the same ever since. I recommend him highly. This is his web site

Those are really cool fish!
I use the #4 pellets for my adult discus, the super fry for when all they can eat otherwise is bbs, the phase 1 fry crack when they get a little bigger, and the phase 2 when they're small juvies, the phase 3 when they are larger and finally the phase 4. I've never tried his live cultures. Please let him know that I suggested them here on Simply.

He sent me a sample of super fry and I love it (well, the little fish do actually). A very small amount lasts a very very long time. Try it, too!
