Holland Ram

[FC]

I had been thinking what fishes to keep in large numbers in my tank for some time. Finally, I bought a school of babby Holland Ram from Far East Aquatic on Thursday, 21 Jul 05. Immediately after I placed them in the tank, I knew I made the right decision. The baby rams are gorgeous, I am happy like a goose :P . See pics for some of them.


The body colours are not fully up yet but just started. They were born in the shop's bare tank.

Freddy, Ram not Rum.

Good purchase, the Holland strain is a very beautiful strain. I like Rams too but not those balloon versions.

Nice fish. Hehe I was wondering when I read the title just what the thread would be about. Had the tank drove you to drink some new rum from Holland?

Those are nice rams Freddy! But Ron says that he prefers his Rum in a bottle, not a tank!

After reading the title, I thought there's some interesting fertiliser you got brewing in your tank! :P

You guys are sharp. I was thinking whether it was rum or ram but did not bother to check it up. No wonder those rams ignored me when I called them .
I had corrected them all, thanks.

Well at least they didn't get all tipsy.

Freddy, I thought you might want to know how the ram got it's 'rum'
Microgeophagus ramirezi (Blue Rams)

Really?! Don't tell me mine (Rams) are your relatives .

By the way, the Micro-geo-pha-gus Ra-mi-re-zi sounds like a great Ra-mi. *getting hungry*
(Kidding, appreciate the right name but I got to do spelling test or write it on my tank. I am just bad, lazy to be exact, in Latin names)

Aren't they now "Mikrogeophagus"? Apparently, the name is Greek-based and in Greek the "c" should be a "k"... I grow so weary from taxonomic tennis...
