Ram Cichlids or Dwarf cockatoos are without a doubt one of the most beautiful, gentle and smallest of the Cichlid family. They gain various names such as the German and Bulgarian Ram but are more commonly sold under Really Red Peacocks ECT. I have never had personal trouble with these fish, there are of course a few people who say they have had one or two a little bit aggressive but it comes as a natural effect of being a cichlid. At the end of the day they are all territorial. Rams can be quite solitary fish but prefer a partner or small school. The eat all basic cichlid foods but prefer cichlid wafers and bloodworms. These guys do not grow very big but are a great tank mate for their larger cousin the fire mouth. Convicts are a no go for these guys but paradise fish and small assorted Gouramis are also great tank mates.

What makes an aquarist and aquarist? Not just his collection or his tank size but the passion they have for the natural beautiful of fish. Blood parrots are a hybrid of a red devil and gold severum. Dyeing and tattooing fish is a rising trend but it is just as inhumane as illegal fish fights. Fish have sensitive skin like that of Amphibians and when people either stick a needle in or bleach a fish it causes severe pain. Some chemicals used are harmless too us but to a fish feels like hydrochloric acid. Jelly bean parrots are an expensive form of dyed fish but require a certain chemical level to prevent colour fading. The chemical levels are what would usually kill most fish and slowly poison the fish. Stop colour dyeing.

Oscars, without a doubt the most famous of the big Aquarium fish, renounced for their personality and character these astounding fish will swim their way into your heart the moment you lay eyes on them in the pet store. Iv had my tiger Oscar Carver for a little over 2 years now. He’s not the most vibrant of Oscars out there remaining his grey and orange with very little black patching but I couldn’t ask for a better companion. Iv had dogs and cats and birds and out of all the pets that have come and gone non have bonded with me like my fish. Carver was a shy, frail little guppy when I got him. Smaller and less coloured than the other siblings I was told he wouldn’t last. Now its the end of his second winter and he’s got a pretty little Vail tail who won’t leave his side. Hopefully he’s not a gay fish and will pop out some kids for me. When I brought him of course I got the usual bullshit story, “ he will grow up into a killer” He won’t let anything in the tank with him! Yaddayadda. Well iv blown that out of the water. He has the most beautiful nature iv ever seen in a fish, he knows what to say to my ex girl friends and especially my sister and he plays soccer with my little Vail tail :D I’m proud! So yeah the fish that was told wouldn’t last the night grew up into my best friend and people can always put your fish down cause he can’t run around the yard or fetch beer but I can’t explain the bond I share with not only Carver but all my other big fish. If your looking for your first time fish and want a true companion for many many years, get an Oscar you won’t regret it.

Such a pretty baby
