Golden Ram Cichlid (Mikrogeophagus ramirezi)
Golden Ram (Mikrogeophagus ramirezi) are known for their vibrant color. They will be the boss of any community tank. Make sure you give them about 60L per pair to avoid aggression to each other or to other species.
*Please note: For the safety of the livestock, we only ship livestock Monday – Wednesday. Please plan accordingly. We mainly sell juvenile livestock, but adults will be sent if available. We also do not sex livestock for any client, we will send a mix if available (this is to make it fair for everybody). This is company policy. PLEASE DO NOT ORDER IF YOU ARE NOT HAPPY RECEIVING ONLY MALES OR ONLY FEMALES OR JUVENILE FISH.
