Fingers crossed

Its funny.. I saw the german blue rams in my lfs and fell in love so I came home and did all sorts of research on them. I read (and heard on here) about how difficult they are to acclimatize and how fragile they are and all this stuff... but I have had a COMPLETELY different experience with mine. I bought two males and two females because it said they will 'pair off' Two days after having them, my first pair spawned. The next night the other pair spawned. I wasn't expecting them to do this so I wasn't prepared... my cories ate the eggs

But with my experience so far they are extremely easy. They were very easy to acclimatize. This could just be good luck for me. But I'm glad because I am REALLY enjoying them.

you could try to,

1, get them more places to hide. less stress on the girls.
2, buy more rams aggression lowers some when in groups(6+).
3, move some ornaments around. establishes new boundries.

I've tried 1 and 3 don't really want to do 2 but lol I might

The colours of the two females are slightly lighter than the male I guessing this is to do with stress?

Yes

This is kinder the way the other two females were before they died, the male still chases them but not quite as intense. these new females are learning to hide. just a bit worried they will end up same way
