I have finally decided to add more Bolivian Rams to the 5ft tank. The three I have there have settled in with no trouble or interference from other fish.

In My Profile it has all the details about the tank.
The question is how many can I have. They will all be introduced at once.
With the new Aquascape there are plenty of places they can call their own.

Have a look in [link=My Profile] http://www.fishprofiles.com/forums/member.aspx?id=1935[/link] for my tank info

Near enough is not good enough, therefore good enough is not near enough, and only your best will do.

Well you don't seem to have your tank cluttered up with guppies, white clouds, and tetras like I have but clowns and bn's need growing room. What happens if you decide you want just a couple of some other species?

You already have 3, so a couple more couldn't hurt.

Warning: I am a compulsive fish buyer, take anything I say with a pinch of salt, lol.

I bought two bolivians yesterday. They are juveniles yet, but do you reckon I might have been lucky enough to get a male and female?

I can tell you I don't think I will be adding any more species I think I have the balance right as far as species mix. With sexing I personally think it is a mater of just wait and see what happens when they get older and settled in

Keith, I think that you can go ahead & add 3 more Rams. For sure, they'll gonna love the tank environment.

Brengun, are you quarantining the fish you buy?. It's better to be safe than sorry.

It's difficult to say what sex are the Rams & from the picture you posted, they look quite thin.......
