Well, there are quite a few species that look like C. leucomelas. If you can post one, a picture would be the best way for you to get more than a tentative id.

Very nice. The fish look to be happy with the tank, and the rams especially look great.

Wow. You have beautiful pictures. I just got a female German Ram a few days ago. She hasn't colored up quite as beautiful as yours have though. I have been trying to get a good picture but my camera just isn't that good. If I try to zoom in the picture gets blurry.
I wish I had the picture taking abilities that you and others have. You have great looking fish and pictures. :%)

Thanks guys

Well they aren't BRAND new, I have had 'em about a week. But they did color up surprisingly fast, 2 days afterwards they were in full color and happily exploring the tank as a small Ram "school" As of last night they are even more colorful...intense colors and the female is being fought over by the males. The male has dug a small pit in the back right corner of the tank...I'm not gonna say getting ready to breed because that gets my hopes too high and I know it is way to early to be breeding since they were just introduced last sunday...I'm just noting interesting behaviour

Thanks for the compliments, I hope to have more pictures up tonight

Well, I finally got my 55 set up and looky looky what I got

4 Rams (2 determined male and 2 determined female) and 6 Corydoras Leucomelas

Without further delay...the fishies...


Male Ram


Female Ram


Female Showdown...er...staredown...


Smaller male...the bullied...(if you look closely it seems he has the cichlid bump on his forehead...I Didn't know Rams could have 'em)


Cory


Cory's


Better look at the bigger male


Sorry 'bout all the water spots/some blurry pics.

Well that's all for now but I have about 100 more to look through and a lot more than that left to take...stay tuned for Tetra pictures that may pop up by the end of this weekend[/font][/font][/font][/font][/font][/font]

Yeah the only reason I know mine are Leucomelas is because apparently Leucomelas have a gold patch behind the eye and have les organized spots thatn other lookalikes (another likely choice for mine might have been agassizi...then again I do have just 1 cory that looks more like an agassizi than a lecomelas...)

Thanks for the compliments
