That is what I initially thought too, so I checked the internet for the gold ram and it says the same... It is understandable though as these are colour hybrids just as the electric blue...

Just a bit of an update as I havent done one for a while. The tanks been through some changes since I set it up about 2 months ago.

Recently added API root tabs to improve my plant growth, in particular my vallis, which im glad to say is now growing! Some leaves about an inch or more in just over a week and a half. Still gonna take a while to get it to where I want it, but thats what planted tanks are all about right!?

I took my bolivians back as they never paired up, got about 8 cardinals in exchange, so now have about 16 neon+cardinals, all school nicely. Im also looking to add some more dwarfs soon, probably this week, will take a look in my LFS and let you know... Any other opinions on stocking? The list can be found on the previous page.

Had a bit of a rescape, positioned my two pieces of root wood together and went for a kinda island/triangle (once vallis grows) excuse the sag to the right, im not sure sure about it, just have so much lol

Excuse the surface floaters, was just after the re-arrange, also the orange molly (survivor) is going, looks so out of place LOL

If those plants take off you got the beginnings of a very nice looking tank! Love the wood and the rocks, nice find.

like it!

once that vallis grows and folds out across the sruface it's going to look great.

A lovely example of "less is more"
