I love the rams, but they hate the hard water where I live. I have tried German Rams on three different occasions, and they tend to live for less than 1 year for me. Yours is beautiful!
You know... I've had it in the back of my mind to buy some of these guys, but every time I see them in the LFS they look awful. Is it common to see them look bad at the shop? Do they color up at home?
