- Well I have found some of these "ramirezi" at a local store, Aqua-Pets
- in Dallas. The fish-person said these were "Blue Rams" and on the
- tanks they were listed as Ramirez, so I guess that's that.
-
- Thanks for the response's, I'm going by tonight to pick up 2 or 3.
- I'll post the results after I've had them awhile.
-
- BTW - any Dallas-ites reading this I was impressed by the quality and
- selection of the fish and supplies in Aqua-Pets. It is at Coit and Spring
- Valley.
-
- Happy New Year.

- Go Blue in the Rose Bowl!!
