It seems like there are many different responses to the place where rams prefer to place their eggs. Should i buy a piece of slate to stick in that area? Or a mini flowerpot? Or just leave the gravel? What other ways are there to stimulate mating? Thanx for all your responses! |

Shannen Banned Posts: 1160 Kudos: 1686 Votes: 98 Registered: 17-Feb-2004 | It sounds like you have a male and a female. Rams do not dig holes. If you do not have any you should add some flat rocks or slate to the bottom of the tank. When they are ready to breed you will notice them cleaning the rock of their choice off. |
