Hi Marie,
really nice looking Ram tank. Btw, how u managed to keep it so clean and at the same time I guess you have many other Discus tanks as well?

Marie,
The picture you just posted is of 2 females. I'll try to get a picture of a male for you today, there is a big difference. (Tanks are all night night as I write this).

They are very entertaining! People think they are sensitive but I think they are pretty tough! I will always have Rams now ~ I have fallen in love with them~I dont do anything special really to clean ~ just reg housekeeping and wc~
Thanks Sindu!

Marie,
*I* am awake... well sort of..
The fishies however, are still "lights out"
Kenny,
You're from The City? Me too, but I live in Chicagoland now, I really miss "home" though.

Hi Larry - thanks for the reminder about the boney rays of the dorsal fins between the M & F. I think you're right on just in some cases I do see females with tall rays as well. Thanks for the info again.
Yes I live in the city...Daly City that is lol. Well it is located right next to SF so technically speaking yes I do live near the CITY...lol
Hi Marie - if my eyes did not deceive me I believe the one on the left is a male, while the one on the right is a female. If you look closely the possible male on the left has more yellow coloring, and it lacks the speckling(I mean right on top of the middle black spot, not around) mentioned. Also the possible female looks like her belly is a little pinkish to me as well. Just my best guess by looking at the pics...definitely could be wrong lol.
Take care friends
Kenny

Kenny,
I know Daly City very well, I grew up, and still own a house, in Pacifica.
As far as the pic, I'm afraid I still have to disagree with you and Amber, looks like two females to me. But I'm a geezer and my eyes aren't what they used to be.

ps sorry for hijacking your thread Marie. btw I got some pics but the camera is new and I can't figure the friggin thing out! They are terrible! I'll post some in a few minutes.
Again sorry for the poor quality.. both are males
More or less the whole tank
Erm... let's try that again, shall we?
Oh! File was still too large... hold on
Last try
